Positioning Bed Pad with Reinforced Handles 48" x 40" Patient Transfer Sheet Aid Assistant for Body Lifting, Turning, Repositioning, for Elderly, Incontinence, Caregiver, Peacock Blue

I care for my elderly Mother who is now bed ridden... It's hard for her to turn over. I got this need past with the handles so I could move her around in the bed alone... The pad slides very easily over the sheet and it handles are positioned in such a way that I'm able too roll her from side to side and pull her up towards the head of the bed with ease and very little discomfort for my Mother.It is machine washable but I haven't had to wash it yet... It is not waterproof so any liquid spilled on the pad will sleep through... handles are reinforced and strong I pull and yank them several times a day and they are still holding strong. My Mother is 5'7" tall, 9i lbs and the pad reaches from her shoulders to just below the bend of her knees. I recommend this pad for anyone who is caring for someone without assistance.

This product is fantastic. I have been using it for about a month now. Washes easy, air dries quick.My mother had a stroke and is completely paralyzed on the right side, she is incontinent, basically bed ridden (I can use a hoyer lift to get her into a recliner or wheelchair but she is fully reliant on someone else moving her) This sheet makes my life so much easier and it is more comfortable for her to be rolled with this than just using my hands.Mom is about 5’6” and 260lbs I can easily roll her to either side, pull her up in bed, sit her up and slide her to the center of the bed by myself with this sheet.The only thing I wish was that this was a bit more breathable so that I could keep it under her all the time, she gets a bit sweaty and uncomfortable if it’s under her for an extended period of time. However if this was more breathable I doubt it would be as easy to use.

I purchased this for my husband who was recovering from a broken pelvis. This made moving him in bed so much easier. It is a great quality item, in fact it's the same one our local paramedics use for moving patients in certain situations. It does not stretch, nor is it supposed to. Outstanding item and very helpful for moving a recumbent patient.

He is just a gentleman and made the process easy.

This is exactly what I was looking for to be able to position my 200# husband in his hospital bed by myself. I use it shiny side down,not the side down with the canvas reinforcement straps criss crossing it but the smooth shinier side. That may be wrong way per the instructions but it works best for me. I am only 5' tall & need all the help I can get to position him. I put a hospital grade chux pad over it for him to lay on. This is a lifesaver really! It wipes clean and is very durable so far..highly recommend this.

This was a huge help when taking care of my invalid husband

This is a very sturdy and well built tool, it made moving and positioning my mom. Her Hospice nurse had never seen this, I hadn't either till I was looking for a bed sheet to help move mom on her hospital bed, this fit under her and we can now move her without yanking and tugging a regular folded sheet- it slides on her bedding and was really well built!

I purchased these bed pads in August. I'd previously purchased the smaler pads and was very satisfied with them. These large pads are better in that they have handles and are longer.However, and oddly, one of the two I purchased shrank dramatically when washed. I wash and air dry both pads the same, so I have no idea what the issue is. But, the problem does seem to be with the webbing. It is still useable but, for the price, it seems the product durability and consistency should be better.
