 Fitted Stretcher Sheets

stretcher sheet
  • Traditionally, hospitals have used flat or fitted twin bed sheets on big wheel stretchers.
  • Industry is trending towards more frequent use of stretchers (specialized departments, out-patient surgery, etc.) that use hexagonal shaped stretcher mattresses.
  • Due to high turns, stretchers generate comparable linen service load to hospital beds.
  • Poor sheet fit and position retention mean uncomfortable patients and higher costs.
