Harvest Emergency Evacuation Sheet for Foam Mattresses
Some patients cannot be transferred to a sitting position for emergency evacuation in a chair, requiring the use of an evacuation sheet that secures directly to their mattress. The Harvest Emergency Evacuation Sheet for Foam Mattresses is designed to be used with a standard foam mattress, attaching securely to the four mattress corners as well as securing the patient themselves with a webbing strap, providing a safe and effective evacuation in an emergency scenario.
What's Included?
- 1 x Evacuation Sheet (Straps Attached)
Do I Need an Evacuation Sheet?
According to the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, buildings must have an evacuation plan suitable for everyone, regardless of their level of mobility. This includes those with restricted mobility such as a disability or an injury, or those who are bed-bound in a nursing or care home environment. For those who cannot be transferred from a pressure relief mattress for any amount of time, an evacuation sheet or mattress that allows support and comfort during the evacuation is often the only solution.
How Does the Evacuation Sheet Work?
When the need for an emergency evacuation arises, the Harvest Evacuation Sheet can be promptly placed underneath the patient's mattress, and then secured to the four mattress corners with elastic corner straps. Then, two webbing straps can be extracted from storage pockets within the sheet, securing around both the patient and the mattress. Once secured, the sheet can be pulled by staff members using the webbing handles until a safe and secure location is reached.
Flexible with Silicone Base for Ease of Movement
To ensure swift movement through all types of building and across different terrains, the Harvest Evacuation Mattress is made with flexible materials and a silicone-coated base. These features, along with the foam material of the mattress, allow flexible movement through doorways, as well as easy traversal of different types of flooring that will often be involved during an evacuation.
Can I Use This Sheet for Alternating Mattresses?
No, this evacuation sheet it designed for use with static foam mattresses only. For evacuations involving alternating air mattresses, we recommend the Harvest Evacuation Sheet for Alternating Air Pressure Relief Mattresses.
