The ultra range of slide sheets allows three basic patient handling tasks without the need to lift and without the risk of sheering to the patient’s skin.
• Turning a patient: for X-Ray, surgical procedures, recovery, pressure care, change of dressing or cleaning.
• Sitting a patient up in bed: for feeding or relief of chest pain etc.
• Moving a patient on or off a bed, trolley or examination couch without painful sheering to the buttocks. The multi-directional glide and ultra low friction quality of the slide sheets makes sliding transfers extremely easy to perform. The sheets can also be used with sliding boards to ease a sliding transfer from chair to wheelchair or car seat or to aid lateral transfers from bed to trolley using a bridging board.
Locomotor Turntables
Available in two sizes the Locomotor turntable allows patients/clients to be pivoted from bed to chair/wheelchair or commode safely. The turntable eliminates the need to shuffle a patient’s feet round to the required position, instead the patient is rotated smoothly and safely with minimal effort which greatly reduces the risk of loss of balance and injury to both patient and carer.
