The Glide Sheets provide safe and easy movement of patients whilst in bed or in a chair, and removes the need to lift, can also be used for turning patients whilst lying or sitting in bed and rotating patients into and from the prone position. For 'long term' repositioning there is no need to remove the sheet after moving the patient. Glide Sheets reduce the effect of friction on the skin when moving patients. Glide Sheets can be washed at 75 degreeC - 100 degreeC, and can be safely autoclaved or chemically sterilised.
