Patient transfer/turning sheets are disposable, non-inflatable devices designed to help healthcare professionals safely move or reposition patients who are lying down. They reduce strain on staff by enabling smoother sliding, rolling, or lifting motions while keeping the patient stable during transfers between beds, chairs, or other surfaces.
These devices are typically classified as single-use and regulated under medical device standards, often requiring compliance with safety and performance guidelines. They’re commonly supplied as sterile or non-sterile sheets, depending on clinical use, and may feature handles or textured surfaces to enhance grip and ease of handling.
