Who Can Use the SatinSheet Medium 2D 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 2D Midi Sheet Improve Patient Independence?
Depending on a carer or nurse to perform simple daily activities can be frustrating and can even cause mental health issues over long periods of time. To combat this, the 2D Midi Base Sheet allows unassisted transfers to help 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 around from side to side in bed by themselves.
How Does the Etac SatinSheet 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 low-friction 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. This satin surface also allows easy turning in bed.
