Product Manual

1. Assist the client to maintain the side-lying position that has been achieved
using the carry bar. More than one caregiver may be needed for this task.
2. Lower the carry bar to allow slack on the straps. Remove the loops from the
carry bar. Place the sling back down on the bed to allow access to the client’s
back.
3. Provide care as needed.
Important note: Once you have reached the point at which there is tension on the straps but the client has not
yet been lifted off of the surface, STOP THE LIFT. Make sure all straps are securely fastened to the carry bar and
that the sling has not shifted position on the client’s body (i.e., it is not slipping up the client’s back and there no
folds or wrinkles in the sling fabric). If you notice anything of concern, stop the lift, and reassess the situation.
Should the Positioning Sling become soiled and require removal and replacement, the client should be transferred
from the bed using a traditional sling or another Positioning Sling.
