Back Belt and Sling Care
When belts are soiled or contaminated, they should be washed with mild detergent in cold
or warm water only.
Laundering Instructions
1) Standard VERA back belts and sitting slings may be tumble-dried on the "delicate"
temperature cycle in the dryer. If the dryer in your facility does not have a "delicate"
cycle, slings should be hung to air dry.
2) "C" Cloth back belts and sitting slings may be washed in water temperature up to 167° F
(75° C). Do not bleach. Air dry or dry at temperature below 167°. Inspect with each use.
3) "H" Cloth back belts and sitting slings may be washed in water temperature up to 200° F
(93° C). Do not bleach. Air dry or dry at temperature below 200°. Inspect with each use.
Monthly Back Belt and Sitting Sling Inspection
Back belts and sitting slings must be inspected by a nurse or professional rehabilitation staff
member at least monthly for signs of damage, for loose and missing stitching, and for tears
and excessive wear that might cause them to fail. If a back belt or sling is damaged or
overly worn, it must be thrown away and replaced with an undamaged back belt or sling. A
permanent record of each of these inspections and action taken should be kept by the
facility. (See Monthly VERA-LIFT II™ Back Belt/Sitting Sling Inspection Checklist at the back
of this manual.)
WARNING
It is important that a nurse or professional rehabilitation staff member inspects all back
belts and sitting slings monthly.
