Oxford Deluxe Standing Sling – Large
The Oxford Deluxe Standing Sling Large is designed to provide secure, comfortable, and dignified support for individuals who require assistance when standing or transferring. It is particularly suited to larger patients and offers a reassuring level of stability during standing, rehabilitation, and toileting tasks. This premium sling is part of the renowned Oxford range, known for its quality construction and thoughtful design that prioritises both user comfort and caregiver efficiency.
Constructed from heavy-duty polyester fabric, the sling delivers exceptional durability while maintaining a comfortable feel against the skin. The padded leg supports and cushioned back section help reduce pressure points and ensure even weight distribution, making it suitable for extended use in clinical, community, and residential care settings. Its robust design provides peace of mind for carers and patients alike, ensuring that transfers can be carried out safely and efficiently.
Exceptional Comfort and Support
The sling’s ergonomic structure has been carefully shaped to promote a natural, upright posture during use. The padded leg supports provide gentle yet firm support to the lower body, reducing the risk of discomfort or skin irritation. Meanwhile, the cushioned backrest offers targeted support for the upper back and torso, helping users feel secure throughout the transfer. Together, these features enable comfortable assisted standing, ideal for rehabilitation exercises, toileting, and routine transfers.
Each sling features colour-coded adjustment loops that allow caregivers to fine-tune positioning for different body shapes and support needs. This practical design detail simplifies setup, reduces fitting errors, and helps deliver a consistent and comfortable experience for the user.
Built for Strength and Safety
Every element of the Oxford Deluxe Standing Sling is built with safety and reliability in mind. The reinforced stitching and durable fabric contribute to its long service life, while the adjustable strap system ensures a secure connection with compatible standing hoists. It supports a safe working load (SWL) of up to 204 kg (32 stone), providing ample strength for a wide range of users.
The sling is fully compatible with most standard standing and raising aids, including Oxford, Joerns, and other leading-brand hoists. This versatility makes it an ideal choice for multi-user care environments such as hospitals, care homes, and rehabilitation centres where equipment compatibility and reliability are essential.
Easy Maintenance and Infection Control
Designed with care environments in mind, the Oxford Deluxe Standing Sling Large is machine washable at 85°C and suitable for cool tumble drying. These properties make it easy to maintain high hygiene standards, helping to reduce cross-contamination risks. Following clinical laundry guidelines will help extend the lifespan of the fabric and maintain the sling’s safety and performance over time.
