About This Product

The General Purpose Sling is a full-body sling designed for use with mobile and ceiling hoists to transfer people who cannot weight-bear. The sling supports the user's back, thighs, and buttocks during a full lift, allowing safe transfer between bed, wheelchair, shower commode, and other surfaces. Available in multiple sizes and configurations including head support and divided leg options.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of slings are available?
We stock general purpose (full body) slings for full transfers where the person cannot weight-bear, and standing transfer slings for people who have some ability to weight-bear and can assist with a sit-to-stand transfer. The correct sling type depends on the person's level of function, body size, and the type of hoist being used. An occupational therapist assessment is required before prescribing a sling.
Can a sling be funded through NDIS or Aged Care?
Yes. Hoist slings are typically funded alongside a hoist system under NDIS Assistive Technology when prescribed by an occupational therapist. They are also fundable under Aged Care Home Care Packages. Slings are a prescribed item — our team can coordinate with your OT and plan manager to ensure the correct sling is ordered and invoiced correctly.
Will the sling be compatible with my hoist?
Sling compatibility depends on the sling loop configuration and your hoist model. Most slings use a standard loop arrangement that is compatible with most hoists. However, we recommend confirming compatibility before purchase. Contact our team with the make and model of your hoist and we will advise on compatibility.
How do I choose the right sling size?
Sling sizing is based on the user's body weight and body dimensions. Using an incorrectly sized sling is unsafe — too small can restrict circulation or cause discomfort, too large can increase the risk of the person sliding through the sling during transfer. Your occupational therapist will measure and prescribe the correct size. Contact our team if you need guidance.
What is the return policy?
Returns are accepted within 30 days for products in original, unused condition. Slings are prescribed safety items — if the product arrives in the incorrect size or configuration, we will work with you to resolve it promptly.
