Spotlight :: Manual transfer sling
Video can’t be displayed
For those who have loved ones with mobility challenges, we’re often asked about equipment that can make daily care easier and safer. One item I’ve personally used for many years, both on land and in the water, is a quality lift manual handling sling. When used appropriately, it can be an excellent support for comfort, dignity, and safe transfers.
Wishing everyone a safe and joyous festive season.
