Your Complete Guide to Patient Transfer Sheets.
What is a Patient Transfer Sheet?
In short, patient transfer sheets make it easier to move and readjust patients’ into new positions. They eliminate the need to lift patients during transfers, making it safer and easier for both patient and caregiver. However, there are different types of patient transfer sheets.
A typical sheet helps to reposition a patient’s body. These are also referred to as patient transfer slide sheets. This transfer device consists of two sheets, one on top of the other. Once you get both sheets under the patient, the sheets easily slide against one another, making it easy to reposition patients on their beds.
A patient transfer sheet with handles has a similar function. Typically, these sheets only have one layer and are lined with small handles along the edges. Once you get the sheet under the patient, you are better able to move the patient from one surface to another, such as from a stretcher to a bed or vice versa.

- Ensure the patient is lying on his or her back in the middle of the bed.
- Lift one of the patient’s legs so that his/her knee is in the air, and his/her foot is resting flat on the bed.
- Next, the caretaker standing on the opposite side of the raised leg should grab the hip and shoulder and roll the patient on his/her side, rolling the patient toward him/her.
- The caretaker on the other side of the bed should then lay the two layers of patient transfer sheets along the length of the patient, slightly tucking one end of the sheet under his/her back.
- The caretaker holding the patient on his/her side can then roll the patient back onto his/her back.
- Lift the other leg roll the patient on his/her other side in the same way as you did in step four.
- The caretaker on the other side of the bed can then pulls the rest of the sheet under the patient so that the patient is lying in the middle of the top sheet.
