Patient Transfer Sling with Safety Belt | NDIS Manual Lift Aid

Conduct essential daily transfers safely and comfortably with the Patient Lift Transfer Board with Safety Belt. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this soft-structure transfer aid is designed to support NDIS participants with limited mobility who require assistance moving between beds, wheelchairs, cars, and chairs.

Manual handling carries significant risks for both the participant (falls) and the carer (back strain). This device bridges the gap by providing a secure, handle-equipped sling that distributes weight evenly. Unlike standard gait belts that only secure the waist, this unit features a full-body support design with an integrated safety belt to secure the waist and thighs. Crafted from high-durability polyester with reinforced stitching, it allows two or more caregivers to perform transfers with greater control and stability, reducing the physical burden of care and preserving the dignity of the user.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Carer Injury Prevention: The four reinforced handles allow caregivers to lift using their legs and major muscle groups rather than their backs, mitigating the risk of strain and injury.

• Fall Prevention: The integrated waist and thigh safety belts prevent the participant from sliding out of the sling during the transfer, ensuring a secure move even in tight spaces like cars.

• Facilitating Community Access: Lightweight and foldable, it is easily transported to assist with getting in and out of vehicles, enabling the participant to attend appointments and social events.

• Protecting Skin Integrity: The wide surface area distributes pressure more evenly than narrow belts, reducing the risk of bruising or skin shearing during the lift.

Key Features & Benefits

• 4 Reinforced Handles: Strategically positioned handles allow for a multi-person lift (2-3 caregivers), ensuring the load is shared and the transfer is smooth.

• Integrated Safety Belt: Features an extra fixed band to tighten around the waist and thighs, preventing the patient from slipping and ensuring proper positioning.

• 100kg Weight Capacity: Robust polyester construction supports up to 100kg (220 lbs), making it suitable for a wide range of adult users.

• Durable Polyester Fabric: High-quality material resists tearing and wear, ensuring the aid remains reliable over repeated daily use.

• Versatile Application: Ideal for complex transfers such as moving from a wheelchair to a car seat, bed to chair, or repositioning in bed.
