Sliding patient transfer sheet PM-401

for people with reduced mobility

With the Lifting Mat it is possible to move a patient lying in bed towards the top end and onto the side, transfer a patient, e. g. from a bed to a shower stretcher, and lift up a patient who has fallen onto the floor. A heavy-duty sliding surface is sewn to the bottom of the Alpha Lifting Mat. The sliding surface significantly reduses the frictional resistance between the patient and the transfer level. The side wings can easily be folded inwards together with the handles, and with the patient positioned on his side ,the transfer sheet can easily be placed under the patient.The inner section of the lifting mat can be removed for washing or disinfecting. Using the Lifting Mat to have several people lift a supine patient from the floor is safer for the patient and friendlier for the backs of those doing the lifting. The Lifting Mat not only makes it possible to transfer the patient from a patient support to a bed, it also assists carers when lifting the patient off the floor
