Oxford Comfort Sling – Highly Supportive with Clip Fixings
The Oxford Comfort Sling is a contoured, highly supportive sling designed to provide full body support for a wide range of patients. It is specifically engineered to work with a 4-point positioning cradle and the patented Securi3 clip system, which ensures that the sling remains securely attached during use, preventing any inadvertent detachment and promoting patient safety.
This sling is suitable for use in hospitals, care homes, and home care settings. It accommodates patients who require full body support during lifting and repositioning, while also allowing carers to maintain correct posture and positioning of the patient. The design of the Oxford Comfort Sling focuses on both patient comfort and safety, reducing the risk of pressure points or discomfort during transfers.
The Oxford Comfort Sling is available in both polyester solid and net fabric variants, providing options depending on the clinical needs or patient comfort preferences. Optional padded leg sections can be added to enhance comfort and provide additional pressure relief for the thighs during transfers. These padded sections are especially useful for patients who are more sensitive or require prolonged support.
One of the key innovations of this sling is the Securi3 clip attachment system. These patented clips securely fasten the sling to the hoist, eliminating the risk of accidental release during transfers. The clips are simple for carers to use, enabling quick and reliable attachment while maintaining patient safety. Additionally, the sling features colour-coded binding to clearly indicate the sling size, helping carers select the correct option for each patient quickly and efficiently.
For ease of handling, the Oxford Comfort Sling includes positioning handles that allow carers to gently adjust the patient’s posture during transfer. This feature helps improve patient comfort, facilitates safe positioning, and reduces the risk of musculoskeletal strain for carers. Furthermore, a modesty loop is incorporated to help protect the patient’s dignity during transfers, especially when accessing toilets or changing clothing.
The Oxford Comfort Sling is highly versatile and can be tailored to meet patient-specific requirements. Its ergonomic design and adaptable features make it suitable for a broad spectrum of users, from those requiring minimal assistance to those needing full body support. The combination of full body support, clip fixings, optional padding, and secure positioning ensures the sling is a reliable and safe solution for patient handling in any care environment.
