Suitable for Emergency Lifting
The transfer sheet may be used for emergency lifting only. When used for lifting, all six handles should be utilised. Non-Coated Transfer Sheets have a maximum patient weight capacity of 400kg when used for sliding, whereas in case of emergency lifting the maximum weight capacity is 200kg.
Maintenance of Reusable Non-Coated Sheets
Although Reusable Non-Coated Sheets have a maximum patient weight capacity of 400kg, wear and tear will progressively reduce weight capacity. It is advised that you always inspect your sheets prior to use for stitching and fabric degradation.
Bulk Pack for Busy Hospitals
To ensure your hospital or care environment runs smoothly, this pack contains 10 slide sheets. This ensures your staff and patients always have access to repositioning even in times when multiple are either being used or laundered.
What Does The Blue Colour Mean?
The colour of the sheets serves more than just an aesthetic purpose. The blue colour of these sheets means they are reusable. The Cromptons collection of slide sheets comes in a variety of different colours:
- Red: for single patient use. This means they can be re-used by a single person over a couple of months, but can't be laundered.
- Blue: reusable for multiple patients. The blue sheets are designed to last over the course of a couple of years, and the are designed to be washable.
- Lilac: for bariatric patients. Available in larger sizes and specifically designed for use with bariatric patients. These sheets could be for single or multi-use, check listings for more details.
Laundering Instructions
To clean the transfer sheets, please follow standard hospital laundry guidelines HSG(95)18. Bleaching agents should be avoided and the maximum recommended washing temperature is 80°C. To dry, drip drying is recommended, although low temperature tumble dry may be used if necessary.
