Who Can Use the Immedia 4WayGlide LPL Mattress and Sheet Set?
The 4WayGlide LPL Mattress and Sheet Set is a specially designed patient transfer system for patients with limited mobility, especially in the pelvis area. The low-friction nylon surface between the mattress and sheet allows patients to move comfortably around the bed with minimal pressure on their body, whilst carers can benefit from the set's overall convenience and simplicity.
How Does the Immedia 4WayGlide Mattress Work With the Nylon Sheet?
The 4WayGlide Nylon Sheet's elasticated straps and 'lock-in' system allows the sheet to be fixed beneath the 4WayGlide Mattress without risk of slippage. Together, the sheet and mattress work to allow facilitated patient movement up and down the bed. For more information, please watch the video below:
How Secure Is the Etac Immedia 4WayGlide LPL Mattress Set?
The 4WayGlide LPL Mattress and Sheet Set is designed to simultaneously provide carers with an assured method of patient adjustment, and patients with an independent means of moving up and down their bed. The mattress's elasticated straps combine with the sheet's PU-coated lock to secure them both together, whilst handles on the inside of the mattress allow patients to manoeuvre themselves or attachment to a hoist for assisted movement.
How Practical Is the 4WayGlide LPL Mattress and Sheet Set?
The 4WayGlide system simultaneously improves safety for patients and increases convenience for carers. The non-slip material along the bedside can be removed to allow for easier patient transfers, and can then be returned. Additionally, using the sheet improves hygiene by creating a barrier between the patient and the mattress.
