Hi Ann
Your idea of air assist devices is a good one. As long as there are side rails on the bed this would be a technique that single carers could use.
We demonstrate the Hovertech QT Roller in our yearly Moving and Handling update session. Several of our rehab, surgical and larger patients have benefited from using these.
The patient still requires 2 hourly turning on an air mattress.
Kind regards
Mary
