What size sheets fit a hospital bed?

Extra long twin sheets fit most hospital beds. The extra length is necessary because most hospital beds are adjustable, allowing the patient to raise and lower both the foot and head of the bed to provide comfort when health care concerns require special bed positioning.

Hospital beds are designed for safety and comfort, with available side rails and the ability to lower the bed closer to the floor so the patient can be removed from the bed easily. Washable mattresses help the caregiver maintain a sanitary, comfortable environment for those confined to a bed. Trapeze bars, foam wedges and mattress overlays can also increase the comfort level of the bed.
