Use
Location
2Move incl. nylon cover and/or tube foil is positioned un­der the client by rolling the the client slightly away from the direction of movement, preferably using an absorbent sheet. 2Move is positioned under the client after which the client is rolled back.
2Move shall only be laid a few cm under the client. Posi­tion the client's head and legs carefully onto the board. If possible, it is helpful to cross the client's legs so that the leg that is closest to the board is lowest with the other leg crossed over it.
Use
By applying a little pressure to the shoulder and hip, the carer can move the client over onto the other bed. If a sheet is used, it is a good idea to position 2Move under­neath the sheet. Positioning then takes place as described above, but using the sheet to pull on (Illustrations 1 and 2). 2Move can easily be removed by sliding 2Move out from under the client: The carer places one hand over the board and the other under it. Then, the carer eases the nylon material away with the upper hand while pulling towards herself with the lower hand. 2Move can also be removed by first removing the board from the cover and then removing the cover by pulling on the down part.
