Description
The Mackworth Hazel Universal Sling is a durable, classic universal sling pattern for general-purpose transfers and bathing. As this product can be cut perfectly to suit each patient, stability around the body and head encourages maximum support for the user.
This sling is manufactured in a standard grey, fade-resistant colour scheme; however, various alternative, high-grade materials are also available.
We proudly design and manufacture the Mackworth Hazel in the UK.
Please note: Mackworth slings are non-assessed.
