Slide Sheet For Safe Patient Repositioning
It is common to need to move or reposition a patient in the bed across from side to side or sometimes by pulling them up towards the head of the bed. Slide sheets allow caregivers to do this with less effort due to the slippery nature of the material which reduces resistance and friction on surfaces. There are 2 types of these slide sheets, with the most popular being the standard small and standard large, which are available in various colors. Keep in mind that facilities aim to reduce cross-contamination between patients by using single-patient use slide sheets.
