Safety instructions
BARIATRIC SLINGS GUIDANCE
If the resident’s weight falls into two sizes or if there is any doubt on choosing the right size slings, always go
for the smaller size sling first.
This resident sling guide is only an approximation, other factors which must be considered when selecting the
appropriate sling are: resident’s distribution of body weight (i.e. hips, thighs, upper body); resident’s height,
torso length; resident’s physical condition (i.e. amputee, contractions, etc.)
.
WARNING
Before attempting to raise a resident, a
full clinical assessment of the
resident’s condition and suitability
must be carried out by a qualified
person on the individual resident to
determine if it is advisable that he/she
will be lifted and/or transferred using a
Tenor.
WARNING
If FLITES (disposable sling) are to be
used with the Teno r, then always refer
to the separate operating instructions
for FLITES as well as these instruc-
tions before using.
