Compability
Human Care Group slings are designed for use
with all Human Care lis and hanger bars. The
products are also compable with products of
other suppliers ulizing the same aachment
method for securing slings to a hanger bar and
li. However, due to the wide range of products
worldwide, Human Care cannot be responsible
for any errors that may result from improper
use or applicaon of combinaons of slings,
hanger bars and lis of other suppliers. The use
of the combined system is at the prescriber’s
own risk and liability.
To ensure the safety of the client and caregiver,
Human Care recommends the following mini-
mum requirements:
1. When using slings with lis and hang-
er bars, made by manufacturers other
than Human Care, the combined system
needs to be designed with the same sling
aachment method for the hanger bar of
oor lis and ceiling lis, meaning loop
style slings are combined with a loop style
hanger bar, clip style slings are combined
with a clip style hanger bar.
2. The involved paent lis and sling must be
CE marked in accordance with the medical
device regulaon MDR 2017/75 and com-
ply with standard requirements for paent
lis as stated in EN ISO 10535.
3. The caregiver must follow the manufactu-
rer’s instrucon manuals and recommen-
daons with respect to the use, care,
client, caregiver, cleaning, and inspecon
of the slings and lis.
4. Dierent products on the assembled li
system: i.e., li, hanger bar, sling, scale and
other accessories may have dierent max.
loads. It is always the lowest maximum
allowable load indicated for the respecve
products and the system that applies for
the enre system.
Always check the markings on all individual
products in the system.
5. Individual risk assessment, including a
praccal test of the system and validaon
with the specic combinaon used are
required to arm that the size of the sling
is correct for the intended use and compa-
ble to the width and design of the hanger
bar. The combined system needs to be
documented by the competent assessor.
