Manual Handling Positioning Wedge

Useful turning and positioning aid for patients

When turning or repositioning patients it is important to fully support the patient. This turning and positioning aid allows the carer to allow the patient to rest against a support and will prevent them from sliding down the bed.

The design of the wedge means the carer can use any of the three different angles. Additionally, the outer material on the wedge can be wiped clean and the form inside is robust and will last the test of time.

Material:

Positioning Wedge – Polyurethane Foam

Cover – Polyester, polyurethane
