Full Body Slings
Full Body slings are the easiest sling to use
while transferring a resident from a supine
position (laying on ones’ back). It can be used
for transfers from a bed to a chair, wheelchair, or
toilet, or from the floor to a bed. This sling style
offers total head, neck, and thigh support. Full
body slings should be used for residents who
are totally or partially dependent, non-weight
bearing, bariatric, or for those who have limited
head control. These are available in a solid
fabric, mesh, or mesh with a commode opening.
Mesh slings should be used for bathing. These
slings are often left under the resident between
lifts. Solid fabric slings should not be left under
the resident for extended periods of time, as the
fabric can retain body heat. LUMEX Full Body
slings have four connection points and can be
used with 2-, 4-, or 6-point spreader bars.

Universal Slings
Universal slings (also called divided leg slings)
are the easiest sling to use while transferring a
resident from a seated position. These can also
be used for lifting from a supine position, making
them suitable for most lifting situations. They are
an easy-to-fit general purpose sling designed
for the majority of users. They can be used for
transfers from a bed to a chair, wheelchair, or
toilet, chair to chair, or from the floor to a bed or
chair.
This sling style is available with or without head
support. They are available in solid fabric and
mesh styles. Our Hoyer-styles also have a more
robust padding in the back and leg for ease of
use and extra comfort, especially for those with
delicate skin. Hoyer-style head support versions
feature a sturdy internal plastic head shell; the
shell is removable to facilitate laundering.
Universal slings should be used for residents that
are totally or partially dependent, non-weight
bearing, or bariatric. Those who have limited
head control should use a universal sling with
head support. The large opening accommodates
toileting. Mesh slings should be used for
bathing. LUMEX Universal slings have four or six
connection points and can be used with 2-, 4-,
or 6-point spreader bars.
