How Does the Etac Sheet Minimise Friction?
This SG sheet is constructed with ultra-low friction nylon, both inside and outside, with the double layer also working to minimise friction. This prevents the build up of peak pressure zones for immobile patients, and also minimises the risk of skin breakdown during transfers and repositioning.
How Does the Immedia MultiGlide Make Transfers More Comfortable?
The sheet is designed to ease the discomfort of patients with low mobility during transfers between different surfaces. It is specially constructed with low-friction materials to soften the impact under a patient's joints to reduce harmful pressure.
Is the MultiGlide Sheet Easy to Store Away?
When not in use, this product can easily be rolled up and stored out of sight. Its black loop strap allows you to hang the roll up, whilst also making for easy transportation.
