Transferring from one bed to another
When the patient lies in a VENDLET V5 or VENDLET V5+, the VENDLET - in
combination with a slide board and a slide sheet - may be used to transferring
the patient onto another bed.
1. First use VENDLET’s turning function to place the sliding board underneath the
patient. Insert the sliding board from the side that is turned towards the new
bed.
2. Press the
or
button to lower the bar facing the other bed.
3. Press the
or
button to raise the opposite bar.
4. Place a slide sheet on the other bed.
5. Place the other bed right next to the bed with the VENDLET and lower or raise
the bed to a slightly lower position relative to the bed with the VENDLET.
6. Remember to lock the wheels on both beds.
7. Press the
or
button to pull in the turning sheet on the bar facing the other
bed. Now, the VENDLET transfers the patient and the slide board to the other bed
and the slide sheet.
8. Hold the slide board with your hands and pull to move the patient to the centre
of the bed.
9. Remove the slide board and the slide sheet.
