Rejected petition To ask the NHS to replace flat sheets with fitted sheets in hospitals

I was recently in hospital,the flat sheets were a nightmare, I was on a bed that was raised and the flat sheets kept sliding down the bed.
Worst of all, the hard working skilled Nurses had to spend time untangling sheets and then remaking beds. Fitted sheets would prevent all these problems.
