Product Details

Drive DeVilbiss Small In-Chair Hammock Comfort Sling

Finding the correct sling is essential for safe, dignified and comfortable transfer. The Drive DeVilbiss Small In-Chair Hammock Comfort Sling features padded, ventilated construction and is designed to remain under the user, minimising the need for constant reapplication of the sling.

What Are the Key Features of the Comfort Sling?

The sling is an important hoist component, acting as the interface between the user and the hoist. Below are some of the key features of the sling:

  • Ventilated: Three dimensional mesh fabric adapts to the user's body shape and allows for ventilation
  • Unintrusive: The sling is designed to remain beneath the user, ideal for situations where application or removal of the sling is difficult
  • Comfortable: Seamless bottom edge and padded pommel for support
  • Convenient: Features colour coded positional loops for different seating positions

Who Can Use the Drive DeVilbiss Sling?

The sling is designed to remain under the user, reducing the need for regular application and removal of slings. This design is ideally suited for those with limited mobility. The small size is suitable for patients between 4'3" - 4'11" in height,  27 - 36" in girth and weighing up to 200kg.

What Should I Consider When Purchasing a Sling?

Several considerations need to be taken into account when deciding on an appropriate sling:

  • The type of transfer: Which position the individual must be transferred from and to?
  • Medical conditions: What level of functionality and sitting ability does the patient possess?
  • Comfort: Consider chronic pain and medical attachments
  • Hoist and Spreader Bar: Ensure the sling can be used and fitted correctly to the equipment.

A full evaluation and risk assessment should be carried out by a qualified person before using this sling.

What Is the Sling Made From?

This sling is constructed from a three dimensional mesh, multi-stretch fabric that adapts to the user’s body shape. The material is made by connecting two separate fabric faces with a separate spacer yarn which gives the fabric it’s 3D appearance. This construction has naturally ventilating properties, resulting in a breathable and cushioned finish for maximum comfort.

How Comfortable Is the Hammock Sling?

Not only is the sling made from a naturally breathable material, but it is designed with a seamless bottom edge and features a padded pommel for additional support. The 3D mesh fabric will adapt to the user's body shape for a personalised experience.

Are Any Other Sizes Available?

The sling is available in various other sizes:

  • Small: (Maximum Girth: 27 - 36"), (Maximum Height: 4'3" - 4'11")
  • Medium: (Maximum Girth: 31 - 41"), (Maximum Height: 4'10" - 5'6")
