Oxford Deluxe Standing Sling – Medium
The Oxford Deluxe Standing Sling Medium has been designed to deliver reliable support, superior comfort, and optimal safety during assisted standing and transfer activities. It provides excellent upper body stability while promoting user participation, making it particularly suitable for rehabilitation and standing practice. Built specifically for medium-sized patients, this sling enables carers to perform transfers smoothly and securely while preserving the user’s comfort and dignity.
Constructed from durable, heavy-duty polyester fabric, this premium standing sling is designed for long-term performance in professional care environments. Its padded leg supports and cushioned backrest ensure even pressure distribution and reduced strain on the body, offering a gentle and reassuring experience during every lift. The strong, reinforced stitching adds reliability, while the ergonomic contouring supports natural posture alignment during use.
Comfort and Postural Support
The Oxford Deluxe Standing Sling Medium has been thoughtfully shaped to provide a supportive and stable lift that encourages a natural, upright position. The padded leg sections deliver comfort and protection, minimising the risk of pressure-related discomfort, while the cushioned back panel provides balanced upper body support. These design features make it ideal for patients who can actively contribute to the standing process but still require reliable assistance to maintain stability and balance.
The sling promotes confidence and dignity during transfers, particularly for standing, toileting, or rehabilitation routines. By facilitating partial weight-bearing, it helps maintain muscle strength and independence, supporting progressive mobility care plans.
Strength, Safety, and Reliability
Engineered to meet the highest clinical standards, the Oxford Deluxe Standing Sling offers a safe working load (SWL) of up to 159 kg (25 stone). Its reinforced seams and secure strap system enhance durability, ensuring safe operation even with regular use. The sling’s colour-coded loops make it easy to select the correct attachment points for each user, simplifying setup and ensuring consistent support across transfers.
This model is compatible with a wide range of standing and raising hoists, including Oxford, Joerns, and other major brands. Its robust design ensures safe and stable connections, offering reassurance to both patient and caregiver throughout the lifting process.
Hygiene and Maintenance
Developed for busy healthcare environments, the sling is machine washable at up to 85°C and suitable for cool tumble drying. These features support effective infection control and allow the sling to be used safely between patients in clinical or residential care settings. Regular laundering following manufacturer guidelines will help preserve fabric quality, colour integrity, and load-bearing strength for continued long-term use.
