In-Bed System / Patient Management / Satin Sheets
The Satin SIBA® 4 way top draw sheet maximises comfort for patients who need assistance when turning in bed.
This super-soft 4-way draw sheet sits on top of a satin base sheet to offer ultimate patient comfort and enable easy repositioning from a single carer. When combined with a satin base sheet, the satin panel in the top sheet slides against the satin panel in the base sheet, facilitating multi-directional patient positioning.
Note: the top satin slide sheet must be used in conjunction with a satin base sheet.
Available in any bespoke sizes you require, (Standard 140cm long and 200cm wide), the 4-way satin sheet covers patients/clients from shoulder to hips and is wider than a single bed. The generous width gives carers enough fabric to safely turn a patient from side to side and roll up excess fabric to reposition patients.
The in-situ satin sheet system is made from duck-egg-blue woven polycotton and a satin panel, which is stitched underneath the polycotton. White check marks in the satin sheet denote movement around the bed in four directions, enabling carers to turn and move patients up and down the bed and into sitting positions.
Hospital Direct stocks a range of in-bed systems to suit all patient needs. If you need advice about the Satin SIBA® 4-way top sheet or other in-bed systems, get in touch with our Technical Team. We will be delighted to help.
