How to Customize Disposable Bed Pads
Disposable bed pads can be very useful for hospitals, nursing homes and day-care facilities. Disposable bed pads can also be necessary in homes where a family member or relative can benefit from the mattress protection in case of incontinence. In homes with small children or infants, disposable bed pads will reduce the clean-up for a potty training or bed wetting accident and decrease the wetness for the child and mattress. There are a few simple ways to customize disposable bed pads during the ordering process and after receiving your package of disposable bed pads. Does this Spark an idea?

Determine whether the disposable bed pads should be standard fluff filled or have an absorbent polymer to absorb moisture and reduce irritation. In the case of less mobile patients, disposable pads that reduce irritation can be beneficial.

Select the package count and color of the disposable bed pads if the manufacturer offers this option.

5
Write the disposable bed pad owner's name on the bed pad in permanent marker if you need to know which bed the pad belongs on. This is helpful if two or more small children share the same room and different beds. By writing their names or initials on the bed pads--plus the date it was first placed on the bed--a parent can keep the disposable bed pad with the correct owner and bed as well as track the length of time between bed-wetting accidents.
