Etac SatinSheet Wide 2D Two Direction Base Sheet with Elasticated Corners

As a carer, care tasks can be difficult to perform by yourself, particularly if the equipment or aids for daily living you use are designed to be used by more than one carer. The Etac SatinSheet Wide 2D Two Direction Base Sheet with Elasticated Corners is constructed with elastic corner straps that fit easily to the mattress, making it particularly suited to mattresses that are thicker in design than most. This is ideal for single carers who have little or no help in their daily tasks at work.

Sizing of the Etac Two Direction Base Sheet

The SatinSheet 2D Two Direction Base Sheet is designed for patients who need help turning in two directions (i.e. from side to side). Please refer to the table below for further information on the dimensions and sliding surface of each version of the sheet. The double version is designed for a single user lying in the centre of a double bed (or for a larger user on a bariatric bed) and can be purchased separately by clicking the model size in the table below.

Improve Independence

Not only is the SatinSheet Two Direction Base Sheet with Elasticated Corners an excellent way of aiding the carer in their daily tasks, but it also enhances the independence of the patient. This is because the satin area of the base sheet improves the ease with which patients are able to turn from side to side in bed. As a result, the sheet ensures that independent or partially independent patients can remain comfortable in bed without having to depend on their carer for around-the-clock assistance.

Reduce Friction

The Etac Two Direction Base Sheet is a traditional base sheet with a slide area that covers the full length of the bed for complete support and ease of turning. The patient simply lies directly on the sheet to reduce friction between their bedding and their nightwear. The sheet also helps prevent chafing and pain while also reducing the risk of pressure sores and ulcers.

The Etac 2D Two Direction Base Sheet is suitable for machine washing at 80°C. Please note that fabric softener or bleach should not be used on this product. The sheet can be tumble dried but should not be dry cleaned, and is suitable for ironing on a low heat.
