2. Use/Placement
The Rollboard Special Edition 30 is ideally suited for atraumatic, pain-
less and low-friction transfer of seated and recumbent, e.g. heavy,
particularly helpless or premedicated patients to a mobile shower
trolley, a different bed, a trolley, different types of wheelchairs, an
x-ray, examination or operating table.
Transfer is also possible over a short distance or over different
heights. The Rollboard Special Edition 30 is extremely flexible with
its support for the transfer of patients with many drainages or with
problems such as respiratory distress syndrome. For safety reasons,
transfers with the Rollboard Special Edition 30 should be done with
two persons and if applicable with a sheet for pulling the patient.
Move the patient in a recumbent position slightly to the side and
slide the Rollboard Special Edition 30 about 1/5 of the way under the
patient. Place the patient in a supine position on the Rollboard Spe-
cial Edition 30. Pull the patient over and onto the Rollboard Special
Edition 30 in the transfer direction with the pull sheet. Without the
pull sheet stand beside the transfer level and push the patient onto
the Rollboard Special Edition 30 in the transfer direction.
WARNING:
» Ensure the working heights of the transfer levels are correct for
working without back injury.
To remove the Rollboard Special Edition 30 place the patient briefly
on the side and remove the Rollboard Special Edition 30 from under
the patient.
The Rollboard Special Edition 30 can be used by four carers when
transferring very heavy persons. The Rollboard Special Edition 30 can
also be briefly lifted with a load during a transfer to negotiate an
obstacle. The Rollboard Special Edition 30 can be pulled up or down,
moved or briefly lifted to move it away from an unfavourable trans-
fer situation. Always be aware of your back when working as a carer.
This product is suitable for re-use.
