Joerns | Oxford In-Situ Hammock Sling for Recumbent Lifting & Amputee Care 

The Joerns Oxford In-Situ Sling is a passive, hammock-style sling designed exclusively for lifting patients from a recumbent position.

Made from a breathable 3D woven ‘Spacer’ fabric, it ensures enhanced comfort and air flow, making it suitable for prolonged use.

This material, along with the sling’s contoured shape, reduces pressure points and minimises interference with seating systems.

Ideal for use with amputee patients following a thorough risk assessment, the sling includes an integrated pommel for additional security.

Colour-coded binding makes it easy to identify sizes, while coloured attachment loops help ensure safe and correct positioning.

Thoughtfully designed with integrated storage pockets for sling straps, the Oxford In-Situ Sling can be left under the patient if required and appropriate.

This high-quality sling from Joerns, providing comfortable and safe transfer support for care environments.
