Who Can Use the SatinSheet Double Midi Base Sheet?
Ideal for patients who spend a lot of time in bed, this base sheet is designed with low-friction fabric that aids side-to-side movement and prevents pressure sores. This midi version is best for patients with partially reduced mobility, as the sheet can be placed either under the lower body or under the area from the head to knees, depending on where it is most required. The striped, non-slip borders are designed to prevent falls and allow users to sit safely on the edge of the bed.
How Can the SatinSheet Double Improve Patient Independence?
Depending on a carer or nurse to perform simple daily activities can be frustrating and even cause mental health issues over long periods of time. The SatinSheet 2D Base Sheet combats this by enabling unassisted transfers, helping your patient retain their independence. Whether you're helping your patient for a short period of time after an acute injury or they require long-term help, this base sheet offers an excellent way to help them turn from side to side in bed by themselves or with assistance.
How Does the Etac Midi Base Sheet Reduce Friction?
The Etac Two Direction Midi Base Sheet is a traditional base sheet that can be tucked in under the mattress. The patient simply lies directly on the satin area to reduce friction between the bedding and their nightwear. This helps prevent chafing and pain during the day, while also reducing the risk of pressure sores and ulcers.
