Who Can Use the Etac Wide Patient Transfer Mattress?

This is best between two supine positions, such as bed to bed, bed to shower trolley and bed to X-ray table. It can also be used for turning in bed, such as from a face-up to face-down position.
How Can the Immedia Patient Transfer Mattress Improve Care Quality?
The Immedia Patient Transfer Mattress is designed to improve the quality of care received in care homes and hospitals. The combination of firm polyester and flexible nylon creates a low friction surface, allowing patients and residents to move independently around their bed, while also ensuring wards and carers are supported in their work.
How Comfortable is the Etac Immedia Polycotton Wide Transfer Mattress?
The Polycotton Transfer Mattress not only supports independent mobility, but the mattress is also highly comfortable. The combination of firm polyester and supple nylon reduces friction under the patient's pressure points, allowing for smooth user movement and adjustment, whilst hypoallergenic cotton reduces skin irritation.
