Quality Medical Bedding for Care Homes and Hospitals
The Turn Easy Sheets Set offers care homes and healthcare settings comfortable bedding that works for both patients and staff. This medical bedding set consists of a single polycotton fitted sheet and a two-way draw sheet that will help staff to move patients side to side (two directions).
Sewn-On Low-Friction Satin Panels
Both the fitted bed sheet and the draw sheet included in this set feature a sewn-on rectangular satin panel, which is what sets this bedding above the rest. The satin panel works to prevent friction when moving the patient for a more comfortable experience, while simultaneously reducing the workload and pressure on the caregiver.
Fitted Sheet with Anti-Slip Peripheral Material
The sides and foot of the fitted sheets are made of high-quality, anti-slip material that prevents the patient slipping off the sides of the bed. It also gives a certain amount of grip to aid movement when entering and exiting, ensuring the low-friction satin panel does not reduce grip control for the patient.
What Is a Draw Sheet?
A draw sheet is a small sheet placed usually in the centre over the fitted bottom sheet of the bed, and is used by medical professionals to move patients with ease. As the Turn Easy 2-Way Draw Sheet features a sewn on, rectangular satin panel, this allows for even easier and smoother patient handling, facilitating anti-pressure practice. When not in use, the draw sheet can be firmly tucked in ready for the next move.
Regular Movement to prevent Pressure Sores
If you aren't able to move regularly, pressure relief is incredibly important. When laying in the same position for extended periods of time, consistent downward pressure can cause the tissue under the skin to die. Frequently moving immobile patients, either onto their side or back, alleviates the concentrated force on peak pressure points, reducing the risk of pressure sores or ulcers forming.
lOW-fRICTION MATERIAL TO Reduce the Risk of Skin Shear
Skin shear happens as a result of combined downward pressure and friction. It is one of the major causes of skin breakdown and often occurs during transfers or repositioning. Using the satin-panelled, low-friction draw sheet reduces the irritation from regular turning and prevents the risk of skin shear.
What Are the Benefits of Polycotton Fitted Sheets?
The most durable and comfortable care home and hospital bed sheets are those made of cotton or a cotton, polyester blend (polycotton). These breathable sheets help patients stay cool and are durable enough to be washed and dried multiple times, while still remaining soft and comfortable for the patient.
