The handles which run along the shorter side of each sheet provide added support for the patient's head during repositioning.

What Does The Red Colour Mean?

The colour of the sheets serves more than just an aesthetic purpose. The red colour of these sheets means they are for single patient use. The Cromptons collection of slide sheets comes in a variety of different colours:

• Blue: reusable for multiple patients. The blue sheets are designed to last over the course of a couple of years, and the are designed to be washable.
• Lilac: for bariatric patients. Available in larger sizes and specifically designed for use with bariatric patients. These sheets could be for single or multi-use, check listings for more details.
