To help keep the straps in place, we have included Press Studs\u003cbr\u003e\n(Patent applied for)\u003cbr\u003e\nand pockets that keep all of the straps secured to the ResQsheet when under the mattress.\u003cbr\u003e\nTo Install\u003cbr\u003e\nPosition the ResQsheet under the mattress with the four elastic straps over each corner of the mattress to help keep the it in position when bed making. Fold the Cross Straps and secure into the pockets provided, ready for easy access in an emergency. Secure the Head and Foot Straps using the Press Studs.\u003cbr\u003e\nTo Use\u003cbr\u003e\nPull the Cross Straps out of the pockets or elastic loops and join the buckle with the strap from the opposite pocket over the Patient and bed clothes. A pillow may be placed under the Cross Straps on the Patient’s chest, and another across their legs, to help further protect them.\u003cbr\u003e\nPull the Cross Straps tight to cocoon the Patient, complete with sheets and blankets still on the mattress. Take out the Head and Foot Pulling Straps from under the mattress. Lower the bed as far as possible.\u003cbr\u003e\nUse the Pulling Straps to lower the Patient and mattress off the bed and slide along the floor by using the long Pulling Straps at either end.\u003cbr\u003e\nResQSheet Extension Straps\u003cbr\u003e\nare available which can fit to any of the ResQ products to allow for more people to pull.\u003cbr\u003e\nAfter evacuation, the Patient can be left cocooned in the ResQsheet, which may be helpful with Patients who are liable to wander.\u003cbr\u003e\nTesting\u003cbr\u003e\nThe materials used to make the ResQsheets are the same as we use for our Lifting Slings.\u003cbr\u003e\nWhen carrying out ‘In House’ testing, the ResQsheet were pulled at a fast walking speed on carpet and vinyl, with a load of 104kg \/ 229lbs. The test results can vary on different grades of carpet depending on the pile and underlay. With vinyl flooring, the type of vinyl and any polishes or cleaning materials used may also affect the pulling force. Therefore these results are just an indication of the reduction.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe Initial Force was when the ResQsheets were on the floor. When starting to slide, the initial force should be less. The table below shows the forces in relation to the\u003cbr\u003e\nResQsheet\u003cbr\u003e\n, and the ResQsheet for Vinyl \u0026amp; Carpet. If there are long corridors of carpet, we recommend using the ResQsheet for Vinyl \u0026amp; Carpet.\u003cbr\u003e\nItem Name\u003cbr\u003e\nPulling Weight\u003cbr\u003e\nCarpet Floor Initial Force\u003cbr\u003e\nCarpet Floor Sliding Force\u003cbr\u003e\nVinyl Floor Initial Force\u003cbr\u003e\nVinyl Floor Sliding Force\u003cbr\u003e\nResQsheet\u003cbr\u003e\n104kg \/ 229lbs\u003cbr\u003e\n36kg \/ 73lbs\u003cbr\u003e\n24kg \/ 54lbs\u003cbr\u003e\n35kg \/ 78lbs\u003cbr\u003e\n30kg \/ 67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\nResQsheet for Vinyl \u0026amp; Carpet\u003cbr\u003e\n104kg \/ 229lbs\u003cbr\u003e\n30kg \/ 67lbs\u003cbr\u003e\n15kg \/ 34lbs\u003cbr\u003e\n39kg \/ 87lbs\u003cbr\u003e\n38kg \/ 85lbs\u003cbr\u003e\nThere are many names by which this type of item is known, including:\u003cbr\u003e\nEvacuation Sheets, Fire Sheets, Fire Rescue Sheets, Fire Evacuation Sheets, Fire Blankets,\u003cbr\u003e\nor\u003cbr\u003e\nSki Sheets.\u003cbr\u003e\nClick\u003cbr\u003e\nhere\u003cbr\u003e\nto view the Features List for the range of Pelican evacuation devices.\u003cbr\u003e\nThe full range of ResQproduct options are listed below\u003cbr\u003e\nResQsheet\u003cbr\u003e\nStored under the Patient’s mattress on the bed and is ready to use, with the Patient then evacuated with their mattress.

This Standard covers testing for mechanical lifting hoists and associated lifting slings. It includes a method for obtaining a SWL for a lifting sling which lifts a person’s entire weight, which Pelican’s range of slings adhere to. We use the same materials, thread and method of stitching our slings, as we do for the ResQ products. An important difference is that the ResQ products are designed to be slid, not lifted, so the SWL stated above could theoretically be increased. Because people’s weight and size may be distributed differently between the chest, stomach and legs, it may be possible that the Cross Straps do not fit some bariatric people. If possible, we recommend this is tested before an emergency occurs. If this is the case, please contact us as we may be able to supply extension Cross Straps.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Pelican","offers":[{"title":"Default","offer_id":50242130051384,"sku":"220VC","price":210.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0723\/8801\/8488\/files\/4-resqsheet-for-vinyl-carpet-main-image.jpg?v=1747626127","url":"https:\/\/suppliers.bettercaremarket.com.au\/products\/resqsheet-for-vinyl-carpet","provider":"bettercaremarket","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
