Click here for Bed Slide Sheet Static Information Disposable - Single Patient Use Item # 505 - 1x1.5m. Item # 505x2 - 2x1.5m. The Sheets come in a pack of 10. For detailed instructions on using Bed Slide Sheets see the original webpages, click here. These sheets are made from a strong man-made material with excellent sliding properties on one side. Caution: A rubber stamp indicates the side that should be on the outside when folded in half. One side of the sheet is very slippery and the sheet should be folded so the slippery side is inside. To use, simply fold the sheet in half and roll it under a patient, similar to fitting a draw sheet. When moving the patient, gather up the loose end of the top part of the sheet and use body weight and braced body to pull this to turn the patient (do not use excessive movements with your arms). Kylie sheets can be changed using the Bed Slide Sheet. When folded in half or using two sheets patients can be repositioned in beds or even in chairs. The Carers use their own body weight to move patients not just relying on the Carer’s muscle power. Practice with work colleagues to become proficient before using with patients. This low cost item is complementary to our Bed Roller Sheet (Item 501) and the Slide & Turn Sheet (Item 509) that are left permanently underneath the patient, to make the turning or moving up the bed, easier for the Carer with less disturbance to the patient as they eliminate ‘log rolling’. Also this sheet is available to use with a hoist Item 509H. These S.P.U. Disposable Sheets should be used with only one patient. They can be washed and reused with the same patient and then disposed of in accordance with your facility's guidelines. Before using make sure the material has not been weakened by over use or washing. Cleaning: Have guidance from your facility’s infection control department as they may over-ride our recommendations. Machine wash up to 80°C. Do not tumble dry. Air dry in the shade.For detailed instructions on using Bed Slide Sheets see the original webpages, click here.
