LIFTING HINTS
• Prior to beginning a lift, have the patient lean slightly back and look at a 45 degree
angle to the ceiling; this help position the sling; this is recommended only at the start
of lifting.
• Try the sling straps in various color positions to establish best fit.
• Always insure the same color straps on each side are attached to lift.
• Should patients have a larger girth in mid section or back side area try the optional
buttock strap to help with initial lift leverage.
• Remember this lift is designed for pivot transfers and it is not necessary to lift to full
upright position; as long as the patients body clears the bed or the chair and vice
versa, you can move the lift and place patient in new position.
