A transfer aid for application of lifting sling and positioning
Immedia SlingOn is primarily designed for easy application of a hoist sling in bed without the need for logrolling or moving the user.
SlingOn consists of two separate ultra low friction nylon slide sheets held together by snap buttons in the corners and it has handles along the sides.
SlingOn is an ideal aid for users that needs frequent hoisting, heavy users, or users that should not be logrolled for application of a sling.
In addition it can be used for all positioning in bed. SlingOn is placed under the user using a simple folding technique, whether it is for the application of sling or for positioning. The hoist sling is then inserted between the two layers of SlingOn.
The ultra low friction facilitates sliding the sling in place underneath the user, and adjustment if necessary.
When the hoist sling is in place, remove the top part of SlingOn.
Note: The user is always lifted in the sling, never in SlingOn. Always remove the top part of SlingOn before hoisting.

The Immedia SlingOn is used for turning, positioning and application of a hoist sling without rolling.
The Immedia SlingOn can be used to move higher up in bed and minimise friction under pressure points.
1. Roll up the Immedia SlingOn from the short side in 20-30 cm steps. Roll out the SlingOn underneath the user in stages. It is important to pull the SlingOn simultaneously.
2. When the Immedia SlingOn is in place, apply the hoist sling between the two layers of the SlingOn. The hoist sling is applied in the same way as the Immedia SlingOn. Pull from the head end towards the seat in small steps.
When the hoist sling is in place, remove the top part of the SlingOn. The user can now be hoisted.
