Patient Lift Sling for Bathing and Toileting | Lumex SURELIFT™ Universal Mesh Sling

Using a patient lift is a great way to safely complete a transfer with one helper for a person who cannot lift themselves and would need assistance from two people. But patient lifts usually come with a standard, solid sling. This sling is made for toileting and bathing as comes underneath the legs and up the back creating and opening that allows the person to void without removing the sling first. Plus it's mesh so that water can easily run through it so it can dry easily. For toileting, while in the bed remove the person clothes on their lower half and position the sling so that their bottom is exposed once the sling is lined up. Then connect the sling to the lift and position them over the commode and lower them down. Now they are ready to go to the bathroom with dignity. If needed raise the person with the lift enough to clear their bottom so it's easy to reach for cleaning.
