It is essential that the patient is able to bear weight on their
legs. LiftPants sling enable freedom of movement, while
relieving some of the burden of body weight. They lift safely,
allowing the patient to move on their own without the risk of

so the patient and caregiver can devote all their attention to
training without having to worry about the consequences of
a wrong step.

may be appropriate for patients who are sensitive to pressure
around the upper body or under the arms.
A padded crotch relieves the pressure.

Instructions for Use. Ensure that the lifting accessories are suitable for the lift used. Exercise care and caution during use.
As a caregiver, you are always responsible for the patient's safety. You must be aware of the patient's ability to make it
through the lifting situation. If something is unclear, contact the manufacturer or supplier.
