The Loop comfort repositioning sling assists the caregiver to move or reposition the patient in bed including turning to and from the prone position, lateral transfer from one flat surface to another and lifting from the floor. The sling can also be used as bed linen and may be left under the patient between transfers (if clinical assessment allows).

The Sara Flex disposable standing sling in conjunction with the lift enables a single caregiver to assist a patient or resident from a seated to a standing position, in one natural movement. It supports infection prevention and safe patient handling routines.
