In one embodiment of the invention, the sling may include a strap configured to be worn over a shoulder of an individual and a U-shaped support member depending from the strap. The U-shaped support member may form a channel configured to support an arm of the individual.

In another embodiment of the invention, the sling may include two straps for supporting the support member and an individual's arm.
