Multiglide Glove
A smart tool
Multiglide Glove can be used in many different situations to position someone. With the gloves it is easy to bring the hands between the client and the mattress or pillow. Small corrections of the lying position, shifting and tightening the sheets are daily activities where the Multiglide gloves are particularly useful.
Multiglide Glove can also be used to check the operation of a pressure relieving seat cushion while the user is sitting on it.

The MultiGlide Glove is an effective low friction product that can be used for small manual tasks and to adjust the user's position.
The MultiGlide Glove is worn on the hand. Carefully slide the MultiGlide Glove under the user. By rolling the weight with the MultiGlide Glove over the hand (the 'rocking the boat' principle) the caregiver can help the user to maintain his/her
to move/adjust position. For example: adjusting the hips, shoulders and extremities (picture 1).
If the user needs to be moved higher in bed, two caregivers (each wearing a MultiGlide Glove on the hand closest to the bed) slide the hand with the MultiGlide Glove under the user’s shoulder blades. Then, by standing with one foot forward and using a Sling or OneManSling under the user’s hips/back, the caregivers can elevate the user (by weight transfer only). The MultiGlide Glove can also be used when the caregiver needs to test pressure relieving side cushions and mattresses
