Description
The Bed Roller Sheet is helpful for turning people in bed, and various other manoeuvres. It is very popular when caring for someone at home.
Uses
- Move a Patient up or across a bed
- Sit a Patient up in bed
- Turn a Patient in bed
- Help a Patient get out of bed without holding the Patient’s body, arms or legs, and without Carers having to lift.
Features
The Bed Roller Sheet can be either:
- Removed after each use.
- Left under a Patient. The Patient, bed sheets and incontinence pad can all be turned at the same time. This means it is always easy to use, with minimum disturbance to the Patient.
Webbing handles are sewn down the sides, spaced approximately 27cm / 10.5″ apart. This product uses a strong nylon material.
Various sizes are available.
Also consider the Slide & Turn Sheet, which may be a good alternative.

Important:
The International Standard ISO/TR 12296:2012 – Ergonomics – Manual handling of people in the healthcare sector gives some guidance on the use of this product.
General Manual Handling Warning: Manual Handling products are designed to assist carers to help patients. They will not make the carer stronger or fitter, but with correct training and use of the products, should make manual handling easier and safer for both staff and patients. When training, practise with an able-bodied colleague. If any procedure is not comfortable or is difficult and puts the carer or patient in a dangerous position, the participants should call out to stop the manoeuvre, recover and recommence. Never jeopardise your health by straining, twisting or being incorrectly positioned when manual handling. Always select the most appropriate equipment for the patient’s current condition and if in doubt, use mechanical equipment. Ask your Manual Handling adviser for individual guidance.
