The SIBA Standard Healthcare Fitted Base Sheet and Midi Four-Way Top Sheet with Handles Combination Pack includes both the base sheet and top draw sheet of the SIBA in-bed Sliding System.

Save Money on SIBA Sliding Aid Systems
The SIBA sliding aid can make it safer and easier for carers to move patients with poor mobility when they're lying in bed. This combination pack can save you money on both the bottom and top components of the system, however the SIBA base sheet can also be used on its own by more independent patients.
Do These Sliding Aids Enable Movement In All Directions?
The top draw sheet of the sliding system can pulled up and down or sideways along the bed, and also allows carers to ease patients on their side or into a sitting position. Unfortunately, the top sheet in this pack is not suitable for patients with very poor upper or lower body mobility as it is too short to properly support their necks and legs. For such purposes, you will require a combination pack with a longer sheet, like the SIBA Standard Healthcare Fitted Base Sheet and Full Four-Way Top Sheet Combination Pack.
Where Can the SIBA Bed Sheets Be Used?
This sheet can be used by a single carer or multiple carers to readjust patients in bed, and can also be attached to a hoist due to its added handles. 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?
The in-bed SIBA sliding system is made to protect carers and patients from injury during patient repositioning procedures. Due to its slipper satin underside, the top sheet slides smoothly over the bottom base sheet so carers can turn of shift patients when they're lying down in bed.
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.
