ABOUT THIS PRODUCT
The Positioning Sleeves are low-friction protective sleeves worn over the hands and forearms when carers are required to contact a patient during handling or repositioning.
They may be used for the following purposes:
- To support patient skin integrity
- To assist with sliding under a patient when repositioning or assessing cushions
- To reduce infection transmission risk
If the patient has soiled bedding or clothing, carers may wear disposable gloves underneath the sleeves to provide additional infection protection.
The sleeves are manufactured from the same slippery, breathable material used in Bed Slide Sheets. They are designed to remain comfortable and breathable during use.
WHO SHOULD USE THIS PRODUCT?
Suitable for carers and nurses who need to reduce friction and shear forces during patient handling and care activities.
HOW TO USE THIS PRODUCT
Insert hands into the sleeves and slide them up the forearms as required.
PRODUCT MATERIALS
Breathable nylon.
WARNING
Sharp fingernails or rings may damage the material.
