Safe Patient Handling
This assistive device can be used for a range of patients and clients. For people with no or very limited mobility, e.g. people with paralysis, Cerebral Palsy or severe Parkinson’s Disease, the system is a safe way of moving and handling, that is gentle on the client’s skin reducing the risk of tissue damage and providing an overall more comfortable experience. The large sheet ‘hugs’ the client while they are being turned, making the transfer feel controlled and safe.
