Slide sheet extension

Whilst transferring a patient using a flat transfer sheet, carers often overreach and injure themselves. Using this slide sheet extension strap avoids this risk. The polyester webbing handle loops through the slide sheet handles to extend the grab points, making the transfer safer for both carer and patient. The handles can extend the reach by 90cm. Extension handles are reusable and can be laundered. The webbing has a 300kg breaking strain per strap.

Using a slide sheet extension strap provides more grip and stability for manual handlers, who face higher risks of back injury and strains due to the nature of their job.
