Think about your own work posture as well as the comfort of the patient. Use the bed’s raising and lowering functions.

Lifting from a Supine Position

Turn the patient toward you to prevent him or her from 

falling out of the bed. Place the edge of the sling as far in 

under the patient as possible, and with its lower edge just 

below the bend in the patient’s knees.

Fold the sling a couple of times so that its center back strap 

follows the patient’s backbone when the patient is carefully 

rotated back.
