MySling Repositioning Sheet

Long-lasting repositioning sheet

Lisclare’s MySling Repositioning Sheet takes the place of the bed sheet and is there to help the carer reposition a patient that is unable to help move themselves.

The MySling long-lasting repositioning sheet can be used for the duration of a patient’s stay up to 6 months in hospital. This will save money and reduce waste.

RipStop Technology used in our mesh fabric prevents tears or splits caused by snagging, wrenching or moisture. The fabric is soft and strong, providing more comfort for the patient.  

The strength within the fabric allows the sheet to have a greater SWL for transfers and repositioning. This fabric helps absorb moisture, efficiently taking sweat away from the skin. This is particularly effective when caring for plus-size patients.  

The MySling Repositioning Sheet is safe to use when wet meaning it can be used in a variety of different situations including mortuaries, pools and wet areas. It is being used more often in the hydrotherapy environment and is currently being trialled for use in emergency evacuations within a major UK Hydrotherapy unit.

The MySling Repo Sheet can be spot cleaned, prolonging the life of the patient specific sheet.

The MySling Repo Sheet is fully compatible with most brands of hoists, making it an extremely versatile product for any environment.

MySling Repositioning Sheet can be used to turn the patient within the bed or transfer them to a stretcher or different bed. 

A patient in an ICU setting will often be sedated and many pieces of medical equipment are attached to the patient as part of their life saving treatment. This makes the turning or repositioning of such a patient even more difficult.

During the recent pandemic our Repositioning Sheet has been especially useful in the acute setting for patients suffering from COVID-19. It allows carers to complete a series of manual turns required to move a patient into a prone position. The length of time that a patient is required to stay in the prone position means the comfort and lack of straps throughout the sheet reduce the risk of tissue damage and pressure on the body.
