HandySheet is an excellent aid to facilitate the application of slings, especially on extremely heavy patients, pain-sensitive patients or patients with contractures.
HandySheet is available in two sizes. The smaller model, Short, is primarily used to facilitate the application of the sling in a wheelchair or under the legs of the patient.
The larger model, Long, is also used to place a sling under a patient lying down. This model has loops in the upper edge to facilitate the attachment of the sliding sheet to the bed, and thereby handle the operation with just two caregivers.
The sliding sheets are always delivered in a set of two, usually used in pairs.
NOTE! Remember that a transfer with HandySheet should be simple and smooth. If the operations seem heavy, we recommend using other lift and transfer aids in our range.
