A patient turning aid for assisting a health care assistant in turning, pivoting, raising or otherwise moving a patient while he or she is laying in a bed having one or more side rails, such as those commonly used in hospitals and other medical facilities. The patient turning aid has a main body panel configured to be placed under the patient and one or more elongated extension members extending outwardly from each end of the main body panel. The distal ends of the extension members loop around one or more side rails to secure the extension members to the side rails by connecting mechanisms on the extension members to hold the patient in the moved position. In the preferred embodiment, the main body member comprises an absorbent layer of material on the upper surface and a fluid impermeable layer of material on the lower surface of the main body panel.
