Easy slide, silicon-coated polyester large-size (bariatric) slide sheets for moving and handling plus-size people. Essential for minimising the effort using best practice techniques when re-position a person living with obesity. Using slide sheets reduces the effort required by healthcare workers, emergency personnel and funeral directors, helping to reduce muscle strain or back injuries. Use the slide sheets as a pair to minimise the physical tasks required.
The slide sheets can also be used to transfer a plus-size person from one piece of equipment to another. This can prevent leaving a piece of equipment with the plus-size person at the premises where the person has been transferred to and having to return to collect the equipment at a later date.
Blue slide sheets are reusable and for infection control, the slide sheets can be washed at up to 80 degrees centigrade.
Red slides sheets are patient-specific and should not be used on different people.
It must be remembered that slide sheets are not carry sheets.
Available as:
Reusable with handles (per pair)
Patient-specific with handles (per pair)
Patient-specific no handles (per pair)
