Description The Economy Extension Straps minimise the risk of carer injuries during patient supine transfers. Hospital Direct’s Economy Extension Straps reduce the risk of health professionals over-reaching and stretching while manoeuvring patients. The wonderfully simple, flat webbing straps have a handle at each end so that carers can safely complete patient supine transfers from bed to bed or bed to trolley. Care-givers love how simple it is to attach the lateral transfer straps. Simply pass one of the loops through a flat slide sheet handle and then through the other looped handle and pull tight until the strap is secure. Hospital Direct sells the patient-handling straps in pairs and recommends using the straps with any patient-handling device with secure handles. If you need advice about the Economy Extension Straps, please get in touch with our Technical Team. We will be delighted to help. Sectors All areas where supine transfers take place, particularly: Emergency services General wards Day clinics X-ray departments Operating theatres and recovery
