Human Care | Positioning Sling Reusable and Single Patient Use Slings for Safe, Comfortable Patient Handling and Lifting
The Human Care Positioning Sling, designed to help caregivers safely and efficiently reposition, turn, or transfer patients in the supine position.
Available in both reusable and single patient use models, these slings provide flexibility for hospitals, critical care units, and home care settings.
Our reusable ventilated slings are made from breathable, moisture-wicking material that allows airflow and reduces the risk of skin breakdown.
The pliable fabric can be placed behind the patient like a sheet, making sudden or unpredictable repositioning quick and easy.
These slings fit most hospital beds and remain comfortable for short-term use.
The single patient use slings offer a convenient disposable option that enhances hygiene control.
Made from a durable polyester/cotton blend, these slings support multiple lifts before disposal and have a weight capacity of up to 318 kg (700 lbs).
All Human Care Positioning Slings feature eight reinforced straps (six body and two head) and high-strength nylon webbing to ensure durability and strength for active use.
The strategically positioned straps provide optimal comfort and safety for the patient during transfers or repositioning.
Whether you need a reusable sling for long-term use or a single patient use sling for hygiene-focused care, Alto Med Supply makes it easy to find the right solution for safe, efficient, and comfortable patient handling.
