SIBA Divan Single Mattress Fitted Base Sheet and Midi Four-Way Top Sheet Combination Pack

The SIBA Divan Single Mattress Fitted Base Sheet and Midi Four-Way Top Sheet Combination Pack is a patient care aid for repositioning patients in bed, particularly those with poor mobility. The base sheet sits between the mattress and top sheet, providing a moveable surface for the patient to lie on so carers can shift them, swivel them or turn them when they are lying down.

What's Included In My Purchase?

• 1 x SIBA Base Sheet
• 1 x SIBA Satin Top Draw Sheet

Who Can Benefit from the SIBA Sliding Aid System?

The SIBA Sliding Aid System is designed to aid patients who are unable to move or reposition in bed without the help of a carer. The base sheet offers a slippery surface for the top sheet to move over, so patients can be shifted up and down or side to side along the bed. If a replacement is required, the top draw sheet can also be purchased on its own.

Do These Sliding Aids Enable Movement In All Directions?

As denoted by the white checked markings on the top draw sheet, this system enables multi-directional movement, so patients can be moved side to side or up and down along the bed. However, as the top sheet only spans from shoulders to hips, it does not provide enough support for those who have very limited mobility in their lower bodies or necks.

Where Can the SIBA Bed Sheets Be Used?

This sheet can be used by a single carer or multiple carers to readjust patients who are unable to move by themselves in bed. Institutions and applications it would be especially useful for include:

• Community hospitals
• Community nursing
• Hospices
• Home care
• Nursing homes/care homes

How Does the Four-Way Bed Sheet Prevent Injury?

This sliding aid system can help protect patients and carers from injury during in-bed patient manoeuvres. The patient lies on top of the draw sheet, which can be slid over the slippery surface of the satin base sheet so patients can be shifted widthways or lengthways in bed and turned on their side.

Will the SIBA Base Sheet Fit My Patient's Bed?

This SIBA Base sheet is made to sit standard single healthcare beds, including dynamic mattress varieties. Markers on the slide sheet show where it should be positioned on the bed, while the drawstring allows you to secure it tightly to the mattress so it doesn't slip off during use.
