Constantly struggling to slide, boost, or turn someone in bed often leads to painful back strain for caregivers and distressing friction or skin tears for the patient. The Skil-Care TLC (Turn, Lift, Care) Positioning Bed Pad immediately solves this daily heartache, transforming a physically exhausting chore into a gentle, coordinated, and completely safe movement.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThis premium pad acts as an invisible assistant in your home, designed to blend naturally into your bedroom setup without looking like cold, sterile hospital equipment. Crafted with heavy-duty reinforced handles lining the perimeter, it distributes weight evenly so you can assist your loved one with significantly less physical effort. It eliminates the unsafe practice of pulling directly on a person's arms or clothing, giving your family true peace of mind, preserving dignity, and preventing accidental falls during routine sheets-changing or position shifts.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eKey Benefits for the Home:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eProtects Caregiver Backs:\u003c\/b\u003e Ergonomically positioned loop handles drastically reduce physical lifting strain, protecting your spine during daily adjustments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003ePrevents Painful Skin Tears:\u003c\/b\u003e Low-friction underside slides smoothly across sheets, preventing skin damage or bruising on your loved one.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eBuilt-In Mattress Shield:\u003c\/b\u003e Integrated waterproof core absorbs leaks completely, keeping the mattress bone-dry and cutting down on laundry emergencies.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWhisper-Quiet Comfort:\u003c\/b\u003e Soft, breathable fabric top layer replaces noisy, crinkly plastic sheets, ensuring a restful, uninterrupted night's sleep.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eSimplifies Linens Changes:\u003c\/b\u003e Stays securely underneath the patient, allowing a single caregiver to roll them gently to one side to refresh the bed.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eDurable for Daily Washings:\u003c\/b\u003e Machine washable and dryable fabric is designed to withstand continuous commercial-grade cycles without losing its strength.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch4\u003e\u003cb\u003eSpecifications:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eMaterial Structure:\u003c\/b\u003e Ultra-soft cotton-blend top layer with a heavy-duty nylon reinforced backing\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eWeight Capacity:\u003c\/b\u003e High-tensile webbed handles safely support heavy lifting and positioning\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eFluid Protection:\u003c\/b\u003e 100% waterproof barrier inner layer for maximum incontinence management\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eCare Instructions:\u003c\/b\u003e Completely safe for standard home washers and dryers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eHandle Configurations:\u003c\/b\u003e Reinforced side loops for a balanced, non-slip grip\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003ePurpose\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSki-Care’s launderable TLC Pad is designed to facilitate the positioning and turning of bed patients and protect the bed linens against incontience. Constructed with three layers of fabric (See illustration A), the TLC Pad absorbs, wicks away and holds moisture. The new low-friction bottom layer makes it easier to slide patients across the bed surface. Strong side handles enable one of four caregivers to position, turn, or lift patients.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstructions\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e1. Place TLC Pad on bed with handles to the left and right sides. Make certain that the label reading “Absorbent Side-Place Face Up on Bed” is facing up. (See illustration B.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e2. When turning a patient, make certain that the bed rail on the side toward which he is being turned is raised as a precaution against the resident rolling off the bed. Stand on the side of the bed toward which the patient is to be turned - Grasp both handles using an overhand grip and roll the patient toward you. (See illustration C.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e3. Important safety notice. Back injury may result if one caregiver attempts to turn a heavy patient. Two caregivers may be required. Each caregiver must have a twohanded, overhand grip on one handle. (See illustration D.)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e4. A positioning wedge should be placed behind the patient to keep him supported on his side. (See illustration E.) Note: Skil-Care’s In-Bed Positioning System, Model # 555036, includes two non-slip positioning bolsters and an incontinent proof pad.
