Oversized Draw Sheet

Challenge: Overnight and daytime attendants were having difficulty moving and turning our client in bed. Overextending and straining back problems were a result because the regular draw sheet was too small with nothing to grip making these adjustments very difficult.
Solution: Our volunteer sewed and oversized draw sheet making it large enough for our client's needs and so the attendants would not have to strain to reach or pull the client in bed. Enforced stitching and extended trim with handholds allowed for a durable and ergonomic item.
Chapter: Hamilton, Ontario (for California Client)
