Sliding Trolley Sheet

The Sliding Trolley Sheet can be used with a Slide Board – Trolley (sold separately) to slide a patient lying on a bed on to a shower trolley, operating table, etc.

The pulling straps are sewn onto both sides of the sheet. They are long enough to reach across a trolley or bed. This allows nurses to maintain a good manual handling position when sliding the patient.

Sometimes the Sliding Trolley Sheet can be used without a slide board. This would depend on various factors such as:

• The weight of the patient
• The hardness of the bed mattress
• The size of the gap between the bed and the trolley
