For supporting large users and positioning them on their side
Turning sling for bariatric patients – for positioning patients to lateral position
The Guldmann Twin Turner Bariatric is used in conjunction with the hoist, to turn the user and position them on to their side avoiding unnecessary strain to the care provider.
The sling makes it possible to turn the user from side to side without removing the sling from under the user. It can assist to fit a general sling without having to manually roll or otherwise move the user. The turning sling has a relatively small surface, which facilitates examination, care and treatment to the user’s skin.
The sling is a version of the Guldmann Twin Turner model, where the design has been adapted to accommodate bariatric people.
On the sling, there is a label with a QR code leading to a mobile site containing links to instruction video and user manual.
The sling can be used with all Guldmann ceiling hoists and mobile lifters.
Using the appropriate sling is essential for efficient transfers to ensure comfort, dignity and safety for the user and the care provider.
