New improved specification for 2009 but with a significant price reduction.
 Our updated range of slide sheets offer excellent value for money. 

• Since sliding (as distinct from lifting) is intrinsically safer and easier for the carer, slide sheets are being used more frequently.
• Slide sheets are fabric tubes with a high slip inner surface and a low slip outer surface.
• They facilitate the moving of patients in three basic ways without the need to lift i.e. turning a prone patient, sitting a patient up in bed, and moving a patient on or off a bed or trolley.
• Slide sheets are available in simple sheet or padded quilt formats to cover the widest range of situations.
• All the slide sheets are machine washable. The sheets are available in 4 sizes. 
• N.B. Because of the high slip factor, there is always a potential risk for accidents when using slide sheets. Always supervise patients closely and never leave slide sheets in situ or on the floor. And always protect heels and elbows from friction damage.
• Our slide sheets have a high degree of glide and slide in all directions. This can be of  help with a heavier patient or when only one nurse or carer is available, but care must always be exercised.
