Slings
Safety Instrucons
• Check that the client is sing securely in the
sling before starng to li him/her.
• Check that the li is balanced when moving,
raising and/or lowering the client. If you
are using a Human Care li with telescopic
hanger bar, it is important that the bar hooks
are in the same posion on both sides.
• Our slings have been designed and tested
for indoor use with one client at a me and
must only be used for transferring a person.
This product is not a swing.
• Make sure no sharp objects are in contact
with the sling.
IncorrectCorrect
The process of liing and moving a person
always involves risks. Therefore, you must read
the user manuals for the li and the liing
equipment carefully. Always make sure that
the liing equipment you are using is intended
for use with the li. As a care provider, you are
responsible for the client’s safety and you must
know whether the client will be able to cope
with the liing process. The sling must be ed
to meet the client’s specic needs. If you are in
any doubt, please contact the supplier.
• Carry out a careful visual inspecon of the
sling every me you use it.
• Check that the right sling is being used for
the client. The model, size and material must
meet the client’s needs.
• Plan the moving and liing process so that it
is as safe as possible.
• Before raising the client, check that the sling
is correctly aached to the li/hanger bar
once the li straps are stretched.
• It is important that the hooks of the hanger
bar are in the correct posion, with the
opening of the hook facing upwards on both
sides to securely hold the straps in place.
Recheck the posion of the hooks once the
li straps are stretched.
• It is important to always check that the loops
are at the boom of all hooks (see pictures)
and securely placed below the locking pin on
all hooks.

Silhouee slings
The Human Care Silhouee Slings are models
with neck support, which are specially desig-
ned for moving people to and from narrow
seang such as wheelchairs and moulded seats.
Depending on the acvity and the ability of the
client, the arms can be inside or outside. The
slings have no handles or reinforcements that
may cause pressure sores. This means that it is
possible to leave the sling in the chair behind
the client for short periods of me.
The net slings are made of a low-fricon poly-
ester net. The advantage of this material is that
the sling is easy to t and dries quickly aer
washing or aer the client has taken a bath.
The So Air Mesh is a lightweight, cool, so,
and breathable mesh fabric. It is made of a
moisture-wicking fabric, that pulls moisture
away from the skin through the fabric where it
can evaporate quickly. This material is an-bac-
terial meaning that it is easier to maintain a
beer hygiene.
The Silhouee slings are designed for two-,
three- and four-point suspension.
Technical Specicaons
It is crucial to use the right size of sling for the
client. To help dierenate our sizes, they are
colour coded for quick idencaon. The colour
code is found next to the sling’s label in the shape
of a loop. This loop can also be used to properly
store or hang the sling.

Suspension Alternaves
Our slings are designed with the premise that
all people are dierent with varying liing
requirements, needs or desires.
To make all our clients feel as comfortable as
possible in our slings, most of them can be used
with 2 or 3-point suspensions. Some slings can
also be used with a 4-point suspension. Below
the opons are displayed.
2-point suspension
Suitable for most liing situaons providing a good
seang posion. 2-point suspension is available with
oor lis, xed and portable ceiling lis.
Two-point suspension with crossed leg support:
Thread the strap on one leg secon through the strap
on the other leg secon before aaching them to the
hanger bar.
Two-point suspension with overlapping leg support:
This method is suitable for liing clients with
amputated legs, for example. Extension straps can
be aached to the liing straps to prevent the client
from leaning too far back in the seated posion.
Two-point suspension with separate leg support:
Put the client’s legs in each leg secon and aach the
liing straps to the hanger bar. Note: This method
increases the risk of the client sliding out of the sling
An individual assessment of the client’s needs
must always be carried out before choosing an
alternave connecon method.
Compliances and Standards
Human Care is an ISO 13485:2016 cered
Swedish medical device company. The Quality
Management System is in compliance with US

Direcve 93/42/EEC (MDD) and/or EU Regula-
on 2017/745 (MDR), as class I medical device.

Compability
Human Care Group slings are designed for use
with all Human Care lis and hanger bars. The
products are also compable with products of
other suppliers ulizing the same aachment
method for securing slings to a hanger bar and
li. However, due to the wide range of products
worldwide, Human Care cannot be responsible
for any errors that may result from improper
use or applicaon of combinaons of slings,
hanger bars and lis of other suppliers. The use
of the combined system is at the prescriber’s
own risk and liability.
To ensure the safety of the client and caregiver,
Human Care recommends the following mini-
mum requirements:
1. When using slings with lis and hang-
er bars, made by manufacturers other
than Human Care, the combined system
needs to be designed with the same sling
aachment method for the hanger bar of
oor lis and ceiling lis, meaning loop
style slings are combined with a loop style
hanger bar, clip style slings are combined
with a clip style hanger bar.
2. The involved paent lis and sling must be
CE marked in accordance with the medical
device direcve, MDD 93/42/
EEG / upcoming MDR 2017/75 and comply
with standard requirements for paent lis
as stated in EN ISO 10535.
3. The caregiver must follow the manufactu-
rer’s instrucon manuals and recommen-
daons with respect to the use, care,
client, caregiver, cleaning, and inspecon
of the slings and lis.
4. Dierent products on the assembled li
system: i.e., li, hanger bar, sling, scale and
other accessories may have dierent max.
loads. It is always the lowest maximum
allowable load indicated for the respecve
products and the system that applies for
the enre system.
Always check the markings on all individual
products in the system.
5. Individual risk assessment, including a
praccal test of the system and validaon
with the specic combinaon used are
required to arm that the size of the sling
is correct for the intended use and compa-
ble to the width and design of the hanger
bar. The combined system needs to be
documented by the competent assessor.
If there are any quesons, please contact your
local Human Care oce or distributor.

Slings
Sling Applicaon
Liing the client from a lying posion
1. Lay the client on his/her side. Posion the
sling so that the centre of the sling lines
up with the client’s spine. Take note of the
marking on the sling “This way out, back”.
The boom part of the sling must be
directly under the client’s coccyx. Roll the
client over onto his/her other side and pull
the sling through. Lay the client on his/her
back. If the bed is height-adjustable, it is a
good idea to raise the head of the bed so
that the client is in a semi-sing posion.
2. Pull the leg secons through between the
client’s legs. Lower the li to the height of
the client’s stomach. When a three-point
suspension is used, you should thread the
le leg secon through the loop on the
outside of the right leg secon. Aach the
leg secon liing straps to the leg hook
on the li. Aach the back secon liing
straps to the li. Hold the li away from
the client’s face with one hand as you raise
it.
Alternave: The sling can also be used for
two- or four-point suspension. In this case
the loop on the right leg secon is not
used and the leg secons are crossed.
3. Aach the neck support liing straps to
the li bar. Pause in this posion and
check that all the liing straps are securely
aached to the hooks.
