Description
WHAT IS THIS PRODUCT?
This product consists of a blanket inside a soft, heat-sealed, wipeable material. The weight of the Waterproof Blanket helps it stay in place on the bed and minimises creasing. A normal sheet of vinyl without the inner material may crease up under the patient and cause pressure sores.
Feedback from aged care staff reveals how effective this product is. It saves them a lot of time during the day and also helps reduce laundry costs.
WHO IS THIS PRODUCT SUITABLE FOR?
Suitable for incontinent people.
BRIEF INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE
Some patients like to rest on their bed during the day. This means carers need to help them into bed and remake the bed when they get up. If they are incontinent, there is a possibility that they might soil the bed sheets, requiring the whole bed to be stripped and the sheets replaced.
The advantage of the Waterproof Blanket is that the patient can rest on top of their bed during the day. If it is placed on top of the bedspread, the patient can rest without soiling the bedspread. After the patient gets up again, the Waterproof Blanket can be wiped clean and removed from the bed.
Some men may lie on their back while in bed and urinate upwards. If the blanket is placed over the patient, it will help keep the top sheet and blanket clean.
