Hi there,
I was recently encouraged to contact you and see if we could possibly have a conversation of sorts RE: ways we can possibly work together. My goal is to have AAHI Designers educated on all of the uses and benefits of FunctionAll Linens.
A new concept in fitted bed sheets.
Up to date Bed Linens have had Form and fit which wikkipedia defines as a functional bed sheet. I suggest MORE than form and fit = FunctionAll
as you review the design please keep in mind that aprox. 90 million people in the US suffer from chronic pain.
We are entering the time of The White Psunami.
There are so many demographics that when introduced to simple product innovations experience more independance which leads to higher moral, better mental /physical health.
The goal is to empower the user.
I was referred to this group by Rosemarie Rossetti her Credentials are as follows:

I recently had the pleasure of supplying Rose with linens for a project she is working on, the bilding of a Universal Design Home this coming year. She will be featuring cutting edge / state of the art products. Featuring of course Universal Design. The FunctionAll Linen designs focus on Ergonomic measurments and placement.And have Universal design features built in. For a pocket it can get pretty complicated. I would love to talk to you a bit more about all of this because I did review your About Us page and to learn about FunctionAll Linens as a hospital product / home care would defenitly enhance your members knowledge base as well as offer them new alternatives to time old issues of space, dynamics,patient ability/mobility. Patient care enhancement I could go on .... but again it would be great to think on this together. As a matter of fact there are probably uses I and others have not yet identified that your members can. Our product launches in 6 weeks /PR /so forth. Currently if you would like a VERY basic idea of my fitted bed sheet design please feel free to
