Who Can Use the Etac 4WayGlide Mattress?

The Etac 4WayGlide Mattress is part of a complete in-bed system for turning and positioning users with reduced mobility, high weight, pain or pressure issues. Both carers and patients can benefit from this highly comfortable mattress as it facilitates both independent and assisted patient movement. This smaller-sized sheet is ideal for patients who are fully or partially independent, suitable for use under key pressure zones.

How Does the Immedia 4WayGlide Mattress Work With the Nylon Sheet?

The 4WayGlide Nylon Sheet’s lock-on function allows the sheet to be fixed to the 4WayGlide mattress without risk of slippage. Together, the sheet and mattress work to allow for facilitated patient movement up and down their beds. For more information, please watch the video below:

How Secure is the Etac Immedia 4WayGlide Mini Mattress?

The 4WayGlide Mini Mattress is designed to simultaneously provide carers with an assured method of patient adjustment, and patients with an independent means of moving up and down their bed. Carers can latch the 4WayGlide Nylon Sheet onto the 4WayGlide Mini Mattress using elasticated straps to prevent slippage, whilst handles on the inside of the mattress allow patients to manoeuvre themselves, or allow attachment to a hoist for assisted movement.
