Ross RollerSlide Flexi
The Ross RollerSlide is also available in a Flexi version that can be folded lengthwise along the centreline of the patient or the bed; it effortlessly adapts to the surface it rests on. This model does not require a flat surface, so it's very practical for transfers from ambulance stretchers or other uneven surfaces. In all other respects, the Flexi model is similar to the basic RollerSlide model. Both models come in two lengths, one of which covers the entire body and the other covers the trunk. The longer versions can be folded down the middle.
How can a bridge move and still be safe?
Differences in height can pose a big problem. And sometimes it's difficult to get close enough to ensure smooth transfers for patients and staff. The Ross RollerSlide, which is used for horizontal transfers, bridges gaps and moves with patients. RollerSlide consists of a padded sliding board with a cover made from our ultra low friction (ULF) material - sophisticated sliding material that slides round the board during transfer. The sliding material reduces friction under patients. It facilitates transfers, and staff avoid unnecessary lifting. The RollerSlide also ensures very gentle transfers for patients who are injured or very sensitive to pain.
The easy-to-use RollerSlide is simple to maintain. The outer cover is replaceable and can easily be cleaned.
