Hammock with Chair Pad Sling

The Hammock with Chair Pad Sling features a non-slip backing, ensuring that it will not move or bunch up under the patient when lowered into a chair. A special Chair Pad is sewn to the inside of the Sling, insulating the patient from uncomfortable vinyl covers commonly used in fall out or lounge chairs. This design reduces manual handling, lessens stress for the patient, and maintains their dignity.

Key Features

• Reduces Manual Handling as no need to remove the Sling or refit when lifting out of the chair
• Less stress for patient
• Maintains dignity
• Breathable Chair Pad insulates patient from vinyl covered seat
• No need to log roll large patients
• Sling does not crease under patient or slip in chair

Additional Information

If the patient moves around a lot when in the chair, the Chair Pad may be more suitable.

When washing, we recommend using a Pelican Washing Bag to help contain the straps.

Special sizes made on request.
