Check Safety

Visual inspection

• Check the condition and function of the assistive device regularly.
• Always inspect the product after laundering.
• Check to ensure that seams and material are free from damage.
• Check to ensure that the fabric is not worn or faded.
• If there are signs of wear, the product must be discarded.

Friction test

• Low friction – Ensure that the surface is smooth and slides effortlessly. Compare with a new product.

Placement

• Place WendyLett with the smooth surface in the middle of the bed. It is bedded in the bed like a normal sheet.
• Ensure that the mattress cover’s rough surfaces or evenly distributed on both sides of the bed. These rough surfaces prevent the user from sliding out of bed.

Material

• The WendyLett slide sheet has a pattern of white stripes on a grey background. Stripes indicate the direction of the glide.
• The draw sheet, WendyLett2Way, has a white fabric with grey stripes. Stripes indicate the direction in which the sheet is drawn.
• WendyLett4Way has a grey-checked pattern and a sliding surface underneath. Stripes indicate the direction in which the sheet is drawn.

Using WendyLett

• WendyLett can be bedded in cases where the user can turn himself/herself but finds it easier with less friction.
• The smooth surface of the sheet reaches over the foot of the bed, which makes it easier for the user to shift his/her feet when sitting up at the edge of the bed.

Accessories

• With WendyLett2Way, the user can turn himself/herself without sliding down in the bed when the head end is raised. If the user needs some assistance or turning is heavy, WendyLett2Way can function as a draw sheet for the caregiver.
• With WendyLett4Way, the user can be helped to a position higher up in bed or closer to one side.
• WendyLean is a pillow case with an anti-friction surface on the underside and handles on both sides. The anti-friction surface facilitates the positioning of the pillow.

Material

Care of the product
