Triple Layer Patient Slide Sheet with Handles

Secure, Controlled Patient Transfers with Less Strain

This Triple Layer Slide Sheet with Handles is designed to support safe, controlled repositioning of immobile or low-mobility patients. Constructed from durable polyester, the triple-layered design reduces friction to assist with turning, boosting, and lateral transfers in bed, while maintaining a soft, comfortable surface for the patient.

Six reinforced handles (three on each side) allow one or more caregivers to share the load more evenly, helping to reduce physical strain and improve handling control. The breathable fabric supports airflow for extended use and is easily machine washable, making it suitable for repeated daily use in hospitals, care homes, and home care environments. Please note: this slide sheet is not waterproof and will not protect underlying bedding from liquids.

Why It's a Smart Choice

• Improved caregiver safety - Multiple side handles enable team lifting and repositioning, helping to reduce the risk of back strain and injury for caregivers.
• Smoother patient repositioning - The triple-layer polyester construction lowers friction, making it easier to turn, adjust, or transfer patients with minimal pulling on the skin.
• Durable and reusable - Robust, washable fabric is designed for regular use, supporting consistent hygiene standards and long-term cost efficiency.
