ABSTRACT:
A patient transport system for transporting a patient that includes a base, a patient supporting member attached to the base, a conveyor attached to the base (such as a bed or a gurney) and a removable sheet (such as a bed sheet) having a first end and a second end, the sheet first end removably attached to the conveyor, the sheet second end being free, wherein the sheet is adapted to be positioned onto the patient supporting member. The patient transport system can be used to transport an immobile patient between a bed and a gurney or vice versa. The sheet is removably attached to the conveyor by adhesive tape or a clip arrangement. A flexible belt attaches the clip to the conveyor. The clip includes a body member having a recess with a plug received therein. Also disclosed are methods for moving a patient from a bed and from a gurney and a method for changing a sheet on the bed of an immobile patient.
