Who Can Use the SatinSheet Wide 2D Mini Base Sheet?
This Etac base sheet is designed to assist patients in turning side to side in bed, whether independently or with the help of a carer. This is done using low-friction fabric which facilitates easy movement. This mini sheet is best used by patients with some level of independence, designed to be placed under key areas such as the pelvis to avoid pressure and friction damage.
How Can This Sheet Improve Independence?
Depending on a carer or nurse to perform simple daily activities can be frustrating and even cause mental health issues further down the line. The SatinSheet Wide 2D Mini Base Sheet combats this issue, helping your patient retain a level of independence. Whether you're caring for your patient for a short period following an acute injury or they require long-term help, this base sheet provides an excellent way to help them turn from side to side in bed.
How Does the Etac Mini Base Sheet Reduce Friction?
The Etac Two Direction Mini Base Sheet is a traditional base sheet that can be tucked in under the mattress. The patient simply lies directly on the satin area, which helps to reduce friction between the bedding and nightwear. This prevents chafing and pain during the day.
