Notes:

Sheet Weight  -  the average reusable sheet weighs about 1.2 pounds.

Daily Loss  -  any hospital that accepts patients from third party ambulances has some daily sheet loss (even if it launders its own linen). Many facilities however, factor sheet loss into general management instead of showing it as a seperate expense. This sheet loss and its associated expenses, though unavoidable, can be reduced, resulting in significant cost savings. By using an accurate "estimated % of daily sheet loss" in this calculator, Fiber-Tec can help your facility identify and capture these savings.
