Repositioning the client up in the bed
It is a well-known problem that clients often slide down to the foot of the bed, for
example when the back support has been raised – even if the kneebreak on the bed
was activated before the back support.
Typically, when a client slides towards the foot of the bed, the turning sheet follows
the body of the client. In such situations, you may use the VENDLET to move the cli-
ent up in the bed again.
1. Double-click the
button to activate the VENDLET.
2. Press the
and
buttons to lower the bars if they are raised.
3. If necessary, press once or twice on
to reduce speed (Speed Adjust).
4. Press the
and
buttons to slacken the turning sheet.
5. Stand next to the headboard and press the
or
button to pull the client
from side to side while you gently guide the turning sheet towards the upper end
of the bar.
6. Repeat the procedure on the opposite side and so on until the sheet has been
completely repositioned and the client is moved up in the bed again.
Gently guide the slack turning sheet towards the
upper end of the bar
The turning sheet is now almost back in place
Applying a sling
It is easy to apply a sling on the client when VENDLET is used.
1. Double-click the
button to
activate VENDLET.
2. Use the turning function of the
VENDLET system to move the
client onto his/her side.
3. Place the sling along the back of
the client and make sure that the
sling is centred and correctly placed
in accordance with the instructions
of the sling manufacturer.
4. Use the VENDLET turning function
to move the client onto his/her
back again.
5. Free the straps on the opposite
side.
6. Place all straps in such a way that
they are ready to be placed on the
lifting beam of the hoist.
