As discussed above, there are many different materials used to make sheets. Each material has its own unique properties, as well as its own pros and cons. It’s important to consider what you want from your sheets as you decide on a material. Do you value softness the most? Breathability and cooling? Durability? Ease of care? Determine what characteristics you want from your sheets and start narrowing down which materials will fit those needs best.

 Fitted medical bed sheets are also an important part of a hospital sheet set because fitted medical bed sheets are designed to fit securely to the mattress and stay in place, even when the bed is adjusted or moved.  This is especially important for electric beds, as the fitted medical bed sheets need to accommodate the movement and positioning of the bed without shifting.
