AmpSling Netted Lifting Sling

The AmpSling Netted Lifting Sling enables the safe and comfortable lifting of users, particularly during sitting transfers between bed and wheelchair, even where a sling without separated leg sections is preferred. The AmpSling has been specifically created to safely lift patients with double or high leg amputations, and offers full support from the tailbone up to the head and under the legs. The breathable polyester net material also allows for the sling to be kept under the patients after the transfer has been completed.

Safe Transfer of Amputees

The AmpSling Netted Sling is a functional and comfortable lifting accessory that has been designed for use by patients with double and/or high leg amputations. It is ideal to use for most common transfers such as from bed to wheelchair, chair to wheelchair, or wheelchair to toilet. The design makes it quick and easy for the carer to apply in preparation for a transfer or a lift.

Breathable Polyester Net Material

This sling is designed for comfortable and secure seated transfers from bed to wheelchair, or vice versa. It is made from an airy, polyester net material that is designed to be left under the user after transfer, meaning that the patient remains sitting comfortably on the sling until they are ready to be lifted again.

Sizing of the AmpSling Netted Sling

The AmpSling is available in a choice of six different sizes, and is adaptable to be used in both 2 and 4-point suspension. It is essential to ensure that the width of the Sling Bar is appropriate for the sling size and the patient’s status and capacity.
