Oxford Access Padded Sling with Head Support – Large

Oxford Access Padded Sling with Head Support – Large

The Oxford Access Padded Sling with Head Support – Large is expertly designed to provide safe and comfortable patient transfers, particularly when enhanced access for toileting, dressing, and personal care is required. This sling includes a supportive headrest, which stabilises the neck and head, making it ideal for patients with limited upper body control. The large size ensures suitability for a wide range of users, offering both comfort and security during hoist-assisted transfers.

Constructed from high-quality padded polyester, the sling ensures optimal comfort while reducing pressure on sensitive areas such as the thighs. Its padded leg sections provide cushioning, helping to evenly distribute weight during movement and reducing the risk of pressure sores or discomfort. The ergonomic design supports patient posture and allows carers to perform transfers efficiently and safely.

Designed to optimise access for toileting and dressing, the sling allows carers to assist patients with personal care while maintaining dignity and security. Its integrated head support enhances stability for patients who may struggle to maintain posture independently, ensuring safe positioning throughout transfers. The sling is compatible with most loop-style hoists, including Oxford and Invacare models, offering versatility across different care environments.

Maintenance and hygiene are straightforward. The sling is machine washable at temperatures up to 80°C, allowing easy compliance with infection control requirements in clinical, care home, and home care settings. To preserve the integrity of the sling, bleaching should be avoided, and tumble drying should be done on a low setting. Regular inspection for signs of wear or damage is recommended prior to each use to ensure safety and durability over time.
