Product Details

Alerta Slide Sheets are an essential aid for safe and efficient patient handling in both professional healthcare and home care settings. They are specially designed to help carers and nurses reposition or transfer patients smoothly across a bed or support surface without unnecessary strain. The strong, high-quality fabric provides an exceptionally low-friction surface, ensuring effortless gliding while reducing the risk of strain for carers and minimising skin shear for patients.

These reusable, tubular sheets are available in a wide range of sizes, making them suitable for different patient needs and environments, from small transfers to full-body repositioning. A brightly coloured hanging loop allows the sheets to be conveniently stored within reach of the user, ensuring they are ready whenever needed.

Machine washable up to 80°C, Alerta Slide Sheets are designed for long-lasting durability and hygiene. They are a safe, practical solution for assisted movement, though they are not intended for lifting patients.
