The transfer slide sheet used to reduce friction during patient repositioning or short moves. It is a coated nylon sheet (about 30×62 inches) placed under the patient, allowing caregivers to slide them side-to-side, up/down the bed, or laterally to another surface without lifting.
It works by folding or layering the sheet so the top layer glides over the bottom, easing manual handling and protecting skin from shearing. It is best for in-bed adjustments, turning, or transfers to trolleys/chairs when the patient has some weight-bearing ability.
