The Sara Safety Strap is used with the Stand Up lifting Sling. This could be the Double Lifting Band (sold separately) design or the single band design that is used with a foot platform and knee block to stand the patients up to transfer. The Safety Strap will help prevent the lifting band from riding up and is used in case a patient should feel insecure during the transfer.
Key Features
- Provides additional support during patient transfers.
- Helps prevent the lifting band from riding up.
- Can be left in position when the hoist is not in use.
- Soft wide belt section for secure fastening around the patient's waist.
Additional Information
To use, undo one of the knots tied to the end of the rope and remove the plastic stop. Then slide the rope off the hoist. Place the loop on the Safety Strap over the Lifting Band. Replace the rope into the hoist and refit the plastic stopper. When testing this product with an able-bodied person, the Sara Safety Strap provided enough support to stop them falling from the Sling. However, we cannot guarantee if it will be suitable for every patient. There may be an individual who could fall in an unusual manner, which could make the Sara Safety Strap less effective.
