Quickfit Poly Sling – With Padded Legs
The Quickfit Poly Sling with Padded Legs is a versatile and reliable patient transfer sling designed to enhance comfort, support, and safety during lifting and repositioning tasks. Crafted from durable polyester fabric, this sling is suitable for a broad range of care settings, including hospitals, care homes, and home care environments, providing caregivers with a dependable and easy-to-use solution for everyday transfers.
A key feature of this sling is its padded leg sections, which provide additional cushioning and support to the hips and thighs. This design helps to reduce pressure points, minimise discomfort, and promote safer positioning during transfers. The contoured construction of the sling allows it to conform comfortably to the patient’s body, supporting proper posture and alignment while reducing the risk of slipping or uneven weight distribution. This makes it particularly suitable for patients who require extra support or have sensitive skin.
The Quickfit Poly Sling has been engineered with both patient comfort and caregiver efficiency in mind. Its loop-style attachments are compatible with most passive hoists, allowing for quick and secure rigging. Colour-coded sling loops make identification simple, helping caregivers to select the correct size quickly and reducing the likelihood of errors during the preparation of a transfer. The sling’s design also incorporates strategically placed positioning handles, which assist in fine adjustments and help ensure that the patient remains safely aligned throughout the lift.
Infection control and ease of cleaning are central to the design of the Quickfit Poly Sling. Constructed from high-quality polyester, the fabric is strong, durable, and resistant to wear while remaining comfortable for the user. The sling is fully machine washable at temperatures up to 85°C and can be tumble dried on a low setting or air dried, enabling it to maintain high hygiene standards while providing long-term reliability. These properties make it well suited to repeated use in clinical and community care settings, where regular cleaning and durability are essential.
Patient dignity and safety are carefully considered throughout the design. The padded leg sections allow for a secure fit without constraining movement, and the full coverage ensures that patients feel comfortable and supported during each transfer. The contoured design also helps maintain alignment of the trunk and hips, supporting postural stability and reducing the risk of strain or injury to both the patient and caregiver. Additionally, the sling’s robust construction and reinforced stitching give caregivers confidence in the reliability of the product under frequent use.
Clinicians and caregivers will find the Quickfit Poly Sling with Padded Legs highly adaptable across a range of lifting and repositioning scenarios. It can be used for seated-to-standing transfers, bed-to-chair movements, and repositioning within chairs or wheelchairs. The combination of padded leg sections, contoured body support, and colour-coded attachments makes it easy to achieve accurate positioning while maximising patient comfort. When combined with the correct hoist and spreader bar configuration, this sling contributes to safer handling practices and a more positive transfer experience for both patient and caregiver.
