SECTION 9-BATHROOM Bathing ƽ WARNING When elevated a few inches off the surface of the bed and before moving the patient, check again to make sure that all hardware or straps are properly connected. Check each S-hook to make sure it is completely attached to the metal support bars of the sling. Check the attachment of the straps, O or D-rings to the swivel bar hooks. If any attachments are NOT properly in place, lower the patient completely to correct this problem. Adjustments for safety and comfort should be made before moving the patient. Patient's arms should be inside of the chains or straps. Invacare slings and hardware are made specifically for use with Invacare Patient Lifts. For the safety of the patient, DO NOT intermix slings and patient lifts of different manufacturers. Warranty will be voided. NOTE: There are many portable bathing apparatuses. Refer to your particular portable bath instructions and use them in conjunction with this Owner's Manual. 1. Remove the patient from the bed. Refer to Transferring to a Wheelchair on page 35. 2. Elevate the patient high enough to clear the commode chair and their weight supported by the lift. 3. Lower the patient into the portable bath tub. 4. Detach chains/straps from sling and reattach to the portable bath tub. 5. Using the lift, raise the sides of the portable bath tub. 6. Bathe the patient. 7. Reverse procedures to return the patient to the bed. Portable Patient Lift and Sling 34 Part No 1024492
