Authorized Retailer

Prism Positioning Lift Slings are designed to make turning and repositioning patients in bed much easier, lowering the risk of injury to both patients and caregivers. When the Patient Positioning Sling is lifted, integrated loops support the patient's head. The sling's practical design allows it to become a permanent part of the patient's bedding. As a result, extra padding will be added to sheets and blankets to improve patient comfort.
