Using the Hi-Tec ICU Bariatric Rollboard

This extremely hard-wearing lateral transfer board is suitable for the heavier patient, while it is just as easy to use as a regular Hi-Tec Rollboard. Its strong, broad design means it can easily bridge a gap of up to 20cm, while the nylon cloth that rolls around the central core is robust, tear-resistant, antibacterial, anti-fungal and flame retardant, which makes the board suitable for excessive use in busy settings.
