ABSTRACT:
A system for protecting a lift sling from contamination, wherein the sling is of the type having a bifurcated seat portion defined by a pair of sling extremities which converge at a junction area. The system comprises a pair of sleeves, configured and dimensioned to fit and be removably mounted on the pair of sling extremities, respectively. The pair of sleeves each have an extension portion. The extension portions are configured and dimensioned to extend to, and interface with each other at, the junction area of the sling. Each of the sleeves are made of at least one layer of material which substantially repels bodily fluids. Finally, a mechanism is provided for securing the pair of sleeves to the pair of sling extremities.
