Look after your staff and patients by ensuring our inexpensive emergency lifting sheet is available in all of your wards or departments – just in case.
Known to save lives, it offers an excellent and lightweight solution for fall management. Developed to meet the “Guidelines for Safer Handling During Resuscitation in Healthcare Settings”, it also has the benefit of being suitable for post-resuscitation transfers.
Designed for lifting patients from a horizontal position on the floor up on to a bed or trolley, it should only be used in the absence of a mechanical device. Equally only use where your patient has no sign of any cervical or spinal injury.
Our Emergency Lifting sheet is safe, effective, and easy to use, and as a result, essential for protecting both your patient and staff from serious injury during a lifting procedure.
Our Emergency Lifting Sheet is suitable for patients weighing up to 150kg (23.6 stone). A minimum of four people can lift lighter patients. However the sheet has space for up to eight if your patient is towards the higher end of the safe working load.
It is easy to clean, therefore able to be used over and over. It is also easy to fold away and subsequently can be kept close to the Resus trolley. The Emergency Lifting Sheet is a worthwhile investment for any healthcare environment, offering reassurance in the event of someone falling or collapsing at any time.
Laundry. Wash Emergency Lifting Sheet at 74°C for three minutes to ensure optimal hygiene. Tumble dry on a low temperature.
