This Anti-Slip Slide Sheet helps patients to rotate and re-position themselves easily in bed. While the slippery material enables easy turning, the sheet’s anti-slip panel prevents the patient from sliding forward or slipping out of bed.
Designed for people with good upper sitting balance only, patients also use the anti-slip glide sheet to get in and out of bed safely and independently. Thanks to the clever design and integration of an anti-slip panel, most users can manoeuvre themselves without support from a carer.
Alternatively, dependent patients can use the slide sheet with assistance from a health professional or family member.
