Reusable Bed Pad

These soft quilted type washable bad pads in my opinion are by far one of most cost-saving, underused, but more efficient means of providing protection and enhancing patient comfort. Spend the money initially to buy two or three reusable bed pads, one to wash, another to use, and forget using disposables all together or use only in conjunction with reusable pads. Yes saving laundry workload is important for busy caregivers but compromise by using disposable pads sparingly with washable pad under the disposable for added protection. Bear in mind that washable pads will not only serve to better protect bed linens then disposable counterparts but double as a sturdy draw sheet for moving patients in bed. Your patient will justly prefer resting on soft cozy cotton quilted pads and benefit improved skin integrity versus that of irritating paper plastic-like disposables. Keep in mind that washing a single reusable pad still doesn’t weigh against the time-consuming task of changing and washing the entire bed linens due to an accident.
