For versatile use and great freedom of positioning, this draw sheet can be moved in a range of directions when placed on top of a base sheet.

Where Can the Base Sheet Be Used?

This top sheet can be used as part of the Flexicare In-Bed Management System either by a single carer, multiple carers and with a hoist to adjust patients who are unable to move in bed. Institutions and applications it would be especially useful for include:

• Hospitals
• Nursing/care homes
• Home care
• Children’s nursing
• Palliative care

How Does the Four-Way Top Sheet Prevent Injury?

The Four-Way Top Sheet makes patient repositioning easier and safer for everyone involved. When the top sheet is moved over the base sheet, it provides leverage so patients can be shifted or tuned in a single, smooth motion. As it comes with handles, it can also be attached to a mobile hoist for individuals who need to be turned more regularly.

Suitable for Use with Lifting Hoists

If patients need to be turned very regularly, the handles of the Flexicare Top Sheet can be attached to a patient lifting hoist to further reduce physical strain on the carer. The sheet can then be lifted using the hoist so patients can be gently turned onto their side.
