Who Can Use the Etac Double Base Sheet?
It can be tricky to find appropriate bedding when one half of a couple has limited mobility and the other does not. The Etac Two Direction Double Offset Base Sheet offers an excellent way to combat this, with half of the bed covered with low-friction fabric that allows easy side-to-side movement and prevents pressure sores. The other half of the sheet is constructed from polyester and cotton which does not have this low-friction effect.
How Can the SatinSheet Offset Double Base Sheet Improve Independence?
The Etac Two Direction Double Offset Base Sheet allows the user to retain a high level of independence while also getting the help they need to remain comfortable and safe in bed. This sheet is constructed with a low friction satin area that makes turning side to side easier while also reducing the risk of pressure sores and ulcers.
How Does this Low-Friction Sheet Reduce Friction?
The Etac Two Direction Double Offset Base Sheet is a traditional base sheet with a slide area that covers the full length of the bed and is offset to one side. This means that the patient can simply lie directly on the sheet to reduce friction between the bedding and nightwear. This helps prevent chafing and pain during the day while also reducing the risk of peak pressure zones and sores.
