Sleep-Safe are often ordered in pairs – one in use, one in the wash, and changed every couple of weeks or so. This pattern of use has been shown to ensure maximum hygienic use and to prolong the effective life of Sleep-Safe. To reduce laundering, or if skin shedding or dribbling is a problem, or the pillow is being used in a respite setting by successive short-term users,

then Sleep-Safe several-use disposable pillow cases may be used to reduce considerably the amount of laundering necessary in these situations. Do not use additional pillow cases made from close weave fabrics, rubber or polythene. These materials will greatly reduce the anti-suffocation benefits of the Sleep-Safe pillow.
