Differences in height can pose a big problem. And sometimes it is difficult to get close enough to ensure smooth
transfers for both users and caregivers. RollerSlide is used for supine transfers of inert users between beds and an x-ray
or operating tables, shower trolleys, ambulance stretchers or similar. RollerSlide bridges gaps and moves with the user
during the transfer.
RollerSlide is a padded sliding board with a sliding cover made from ULF (Ultra Low Friction), Handicare's own sophisti-
cated sliding material. The sliding cover slides round the board during transfer, reducing the friction under the user and
thereby facilitating a sliding transfer without unnecessary lifting for the caregivers. RollerSlide also ensures very gentle
transfers for users who are injured or very sensitive to pain.
Check Safety
Visual inspection
Check the condition and function of the assistive device regularly. Always inspect the product after laundering. Check to
ensure that seams and material are free from damage. Check to ensure that fabric is not worn or faded. If there are signs
of wear, the product must be discarded.
Stability test
Carefully bend the assistive device to check strength and durability. The mat should be both
elastic and rigid. Discard the EasyGlide when its strength and durability are diminished.
Always read the user manual
Always read the user manuals for all assistive devices used during a transfer.
Keep the user manual where it is accessible to users of the product.
Always make sure that you have the right version of the user manual.
