The Walking Sling - Leg Sleeves Set can be fitted over the top of existing straps. Different brands of Walking Slings may or may not come with padding on the groin or leg straps. They give more padding for comfort by sliding over the existing leg straps. At some facilities, they may use the same Walking Sling for different patients who are different sizes, and the standard padding for the leg webbing may not be long enough. Alternatively, as a patient grows, then the different size sleeves can be used to protect their legs.

Important
General Manual Handling Warning: Manual Handling products are designed to assist carers to help patients. They will not make the carer stronger or fitter, but with correct training and use of the products, should make manual handling easier and safer for both staff and patients. When training, practise with an able-bodied colleague. If any procedure is not comfortable or is difficult and puts the carer or patient in a dangerous position, the participants should call out to stop the manoeuvre, recover and recommence. Never jeopardise your health by straining, twisting or being incorrectly positioned when manual handling. Always select the most appropriate equipment for the patient’s current condition and if in doubt, use mechanical equipment. Ask your Manual Handling adviser for individual guidance.
Correct Buckle Threading: It is vital that the buckles on this product are correctly fitted. Contact us if you need to order a replacement buckle if one is broken.
