Sling Options
Fabrics: Positioning Slings are available in a variety of materials.
 Polyester (Solid White and Solid Green)
 Mesh (blue)
 Spacer Fabric (black)
 Patient Specific
Positioning Slings are also available with “Tabs”. The tabs are tucked under the mattress following a
reposition/turn to prevent the sling from moving on the bed surface.
Head Support: Not applicable. The Positioning Sling, regardless of size, is designed to provide full head support.
Clinical Applications:
Appropriate for a client who:
 Requires lateral transfers (i.e., bed to stretcher)
 Requires frequent turning or repositioning
 Is physically difficult for caregivers to reposition or turn
 Receives care in side lying (i.e., peri-care, wound care)
A different sling type will best meet the needs of a client who:
 Is not medically safe or comfortable in the “cocoon” created by the sling.
