Application
Some people who have restless nights, may sleep better with the Bed Comforter. It may make the person feel secure so they stay in their own bed overnight and not try to get into other people's beds. It is difficult to guarantee if this product will work with every patient, so if it doesn't with one patient, it may well work with someone else in the facility. The success of this product may depend on how it is introduced to the patient.
The Bed Comforter is designed so it can rest between their legs and protect their legs rubbing together. They can also rest their arm over the comforter.
Cleaning
Washing instructions: machine wash up to 80C. Tumble drying is not recommended as this can damage some materials.
