Description

WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT?

The Walking Sling – Leg Sleeves Set can be fitted over the top of existing straps. Most Walking Slings have some padding on the groin straps. Use these Sleeves to add more padding for comfort, by sliding over the existing leg straps.

They can be fitted to the Walking Sling or Walking Sling – Adjustable, and other brands of walking slings.

At some facilities they may use the same Walking Sling for different people who are different sizes, and the standard padding for the leg webbing may not be long enough. As a person grows, then the different size Sleeves can be used to protect their legs. In either case, the different size Sleeves can be quickly fitted over the existing padding on the Leg Section.

A set consists of three pairs of Sleeves in these sizes:

25cm / 10″
30cm / 12″
35cm / 14″

WHO IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR?

This product is suitable for someone using a Walking Sling or Walking Sling – Adjustable, and needs extra padding.

BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

Important

General Manual Handling Warning: Manual Handling products are designed to assist carers to help patients. They will not make the carer stronger or fitter, but with correct training and use of the products, should make manual handling easier and safer for both staff and patients. When training, practise with an able-bodied colleague. If any procedure is not comfortable or is difficult and puts the carer or patient in a dangerous position, the participants should call out to stop the manoeuvre, recover and recommence. Never jeopardise your health by straining, twisting or being incorrectly positioned when manual handling. Always select the most appropriate equipment for the patient’s current condition and if in doubt, use mechanical equipment. Ask your Manual Handling adviser for individual guidance.
