The hip-belt shall be positioned over the hips,

and the pressure should act as shown by the red

arrow, to secure that the position reached in step

3 is kept over time

3 . P O S I T I O N T H E P A T I E N T

It is vital that the patient is positioned

as far as possible into the seat. There

are several techniques to achieve

this. Whilst using a lifting-sail, lower the

patient as shown by the red arrow.

When positioning manually, try adjusting

the person into the seat, and feel with

your hand until you are sure the patient

is in the correct position.

Correct positioning is vital for the seat to function!

The hip belt should apply pressure downwards.
