Description
Evacuation Sheet for Safe Patient Evacuation in Emergencies
The MIP Evacuation Sheet is a vital safety accessory designed to remain permanently fixed beneath a flexible foam mattress using strong elastic straps or hook-and-loop fasteners. In emergency situations such as fire, when a patient or resident is difficult to move, this evacuation sheet allows the entire mattress and occupant to be quickly and safely pulled from the bed, enabling rapid evacuation without the need to transfer the person separately.
Features
Key Features for the Evacuation Sheet:
Secure Patient Positioning: Flexible safety belts hold the patient firmly on the mattress, while pulling straps located at both the head and foot provide secure grip points for evacuation.
Smooth and Flexible Design: The combination of a low-friction, slippery sheet and the flexible mattress allows easy maneuvering through narrow doorways and down stairs.
Head Strap for Stair Safety: A dedicated holding strap at the head end prevents the mattress from slipping backward during stair descent.
Easy Attachment: Available with two attachment options - elastic straps that loop around mattress ends or hook-and-loop straps securing the sheet to the bed frame.
Removable and Launderable: The sheet can be easily removed for cleaning if soiled, ensuring hygiene and longevity.
High Safe Working Load: Supports up to 400kg, accommodating a wide range of patients.
Compliance and Safety: Fire resistant and tested to EN12952 standards.
Latex-Free Material: Safe for sensitive patients with allergies.
Dimensions: 185cm x 85cm, coloured red for high visibility.
Maintenance:
Minimal maintenance required; periodic inspection of stitching, webbing, and fabric is recommended to detect wear or degradation over time.
