Positioning

To position the Turning Mattress: Position the Turning

Mattress in the bed with the cotton extension piece at the

head end.

A cover/sheet or absorbent sheet can also be fitted if

required.

Use

The carer grasps the sheet over the Turning Mattress using a

"flourbag grip" or an "axe grip". Then, with arms stretched

at the level of the client's shoulders and hips, with one foot

forward and using weight transference, the carer pulls the

client out to the edge of the bed:

The carer bends slightly at the knee and, with elbows close

into the body, straightens up, thus turning the client into the

side position (Illustration 1). Alternatively, a carer on the op-

posite side grasps the sheet and turns the client using weight

transference.

In connection with positioning the client's back can be

supported using a rolled Turning Mattress or a Positioning

Wedge.

When positioning is completed, the client can be returned to

lie on his/her back or pushed back to the middle of the bed.

Raising the head end

The head end of the Turning Mattress has a cotton fabric

extension which can be folded down behind the bed/under

the mattress when the head end is raised. This prevents the

client from sliding down.

At the same time, to achieve a comfortable seated position,

it will often be beneficial to position a rolled Turning

Mattress behind the client's knees.

Use

Adjustment:

To smooth the Turning Mattress two carers pull diagonally

in each corner of the top part of the Turning Mattress and

in the waterproof cover.
