FAQ – Handling Slings
What are handling slings and what are they used for?
Samarit handling slings are textile patient handling aids used during patient transfers. They help caregivers safely move, reposition, or support patients while sitting or standing. Using a handling sling makes repositioning more comfortable for patients and helps protect caregivers from physical strain and injury.
Which handling sling models does Samarit offer?
Samarit offers handling slings in various designs and sizes to ensure an optimal fit depending on the application and the patient’s body size. The slings are available in Small, Medium, and Large. More detailed information about each model can be found on our website.
Which patient groups are handling slings suitable for?
Handling slings are particularly suitable for people with limited mobility, for example after surgery, during rehabilitation, or due to age-related mobility limitations. Patients with an increased risk of falls or individuals who need assistance transferring from the bed to a wheelchair can also benefit from using a handling sling.
How are handling slings used correctly?
A handling sling should always be applied securely and without folds to avoid pressure points or injuries. When assisting heavier patients, it is recommended that two caregivers perform the transfer. Sudden or jerky movements should be avoided, as they can compromise safety. Before each use, the sling should be inspected for any signs of damage. Product videos demonstrating the proper use of lifting and transfer aids can be found on our website and on YouTube.
How should handling slings be cleaned?
Handling slings can be washed using mild detergents. Aggressive chemicals or harsh solvents should be avoided to preserve the material quality. After washing, the slings should be allowed to dry completely. It is also recommended to check them regularly for wear, tears, or other signs of damage.
