Description

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT?

This is a comfortable, padded sling designed to remain underneath the user while seated.

The Hammock with Chair Pad Sling is the same as the Chair Pad. It is manufactured with a strong, washable, breathable foam backing and a specialised upper fabric containing micro-holes that allow perspiration to pass through to the breathable foam layer.

WHO IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR?

Suitable for people who can be safely transferred using a metal hook-style hoist.

BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Always ensure the person’s head is positioned at the top of the pad so it is supported when lifting in a reclined position. When lifting in a seated position, the sling does not provide head support.

When lowering the person into a chair, ensure they are comfortably positioned before disconnecting the webbing from the hoist. Once correctly seated, the webbing may be unhooked and the excess sling material tucked neatly beside the person for easier access during future transfers.

To remove the sling when the person returns to bed, log roll the person and fold the sling along the stitched sections during removal.

The rear of the sling includes non-slip Miracle Grip material to help hold the sling in position while seated. This helps prevent the sling from slipping down behind the back or creasing beneath the legs and buttocks.

Over time, the Miracle Grip material may wear due to repeated friction against the chair during transfers. Pelican can replace the Miracle Grip material if required.

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT MADE FROM?

Nylon, foam, moisture-wicking material, webbing.

Material	Photo	Type	Notes
Standard White		Nylon	This is called a solid material, as it is not a Mesh or Netting material that has holes in the material. The nylon has some slipperiness, to make it easier to slide down behind a patient’s back, when they are sitting in a chair.

Please select the most appropriate material and sling design for the patient, but remember, if the patient’s condition changes, it may be necessary to use a different material and design of sling. See the FAQ tab for more information.
