An overlay sheet which positions the patient is provided including the sheet, the supports which are located between the patient's arms and torso, and a retaining VELCRO strap. The patient is positioned between the supports and retained by the VELCRO straps, thus, ideally positioned and prevented from sliding side-to-side during oscillation of the air support system.
