Manual Handling

Our Slide Sheets are made from a Transtex, a specially developed fabric that is silicone coated on both sides to provide a slick, low friction finish for easy patient movement and turning. Reusable Slide Sheets are made from Transtex fabric and are blue in colour. The durable fabric is suitable for hospital laundering using standard hospital laundry guidelines. Slide sheets are not intended for lifting, and all patient maneuvers should be accomplished without lifting. For all repositioning and manual handling solutions it is recommended to seek advice / approval from a manual handling expert.
