Sleep is essential for both physical and mental health, and getting enough high-quality sleep is particularly important for students as they go through their academic journey. It is vital that boarding schools, where students spend a significant amount of time away from their families, ensure that their students have a comfortable and healthy sleep environment.
FresHotel’s Protect-A-Bed sleep protectors are designed and tested in a laboratory for the highest efficacy and absorption, creating the foundation of a healthy sleep zone, which not only protects the mattress investment but also benefits the students' sleep quality and overall health and wellbeing.
The Miracle Layer technology is an effective solution to prevent moisture, spills, and stains from damaging the mattress. After all, a good-quality mattress is a significant investment for any establishment, and regular cleaning and maintenance can be costly. By using a Protect-A-Bed protector, boarding schools can safeguard their investment and increase the lifespan of the mattress.
A clean and hygienic environment is essential for maintaining good health. Moisture from sweat or spills can create an ideal breeding ground for bacteria, allergens, bedbugs and dust mites, which can cause allergies, respiratory problems, or skin irritation. Boarding schools can protect their students from these health hazards by utilising a protector infused with Fresche antimicrobial that can be easily removed and washed, ensuring that the mattress remains clean and hygienic for the students.
Providing students with a healthy, comfortable sleep surface underwrites a great night’s sleep, reducing stress and anxiety and contributing to academic performance and mental well-being.
A good night's sleep is crucial for academic success, and Protect-A-Bed mattress protectors can help improve the quality of sleep that students receive. These protectors are designed to be breathable, which means that they allow air to circulate, resulting in students being comfortable throughout the night.
Here are the seven reasons for choosing a FresHotel Protect-A-Bed mattress protector and creating a healthy sleep zone.
Germs and Allergens: When students share sleeping quarters, the risk of spreading germs and allergens increases. However, Protect-A-Bed sleep protectors are designed to be hypoallergenic and antimicrobial to help prevent the growth of bacteria, mould, and dust mites. This can help create a healthier sleeping environment for students, which can lead to improved health and fewer missed days of school
Mental Health: Lack of sleep has been linked to numerous mental health problems, including anxiety, depression, and irritability. Poor sleep quality can also lead to increased stress levels, which can exacerbate these conditions. A good night's sleep helps restore emotional balance and allows students to approach their day with a positive outlook
Cognitive Development: During sleep, the brain processes and consolidates information acquired during the day, facilitating cognitive development. A good night's sleep enhances the brain's ability to acquire, retain new information leading to better academic performance.
Memory: Sleep plays a crucial role in memory consolidation, which is the process of converting short-term memories into long-term ones. Students who get good quality sleep are better able to recall and apply what they have learned, leading to better academic performance.
Concentration: Sleep deprivation can impair attention and concentration, making it harder for students to focus on their studies. Adequate sleep is essential for maintaining cognitive functioning and staying alert throughout the day.
Physical Health: Poor sleep quality has been linked to numerous physical health problems, including obesity, diabetes, and cardiovascular disease. Getting enough high-quality sleep is essential for physical fitness.
Economical: Investing in Protect-A-Bed sleep protectors is a cost-effective way to protect your investment in your mattresses. The protectors can prolong the lifespan of your mattresses by preventing spills, stains, and wear and tear. Additionally, they can help prevent the growth of bacteria and mould, which can lead to costly mattress replacements. Investing in high-quality mattress protectors can save your school money in the long run and ensure that your students have a comfortable and healthy sleeping environment.
Good quality sleep is essential for mental and physical health, as well as cognitive development, memory, concentration, and problem-solving abilities. It is incumbent on boarding schools to prioritise sleep and create a sleep-conducive environment for students in their care, including establishing regular sleep habits and avoiding factors that disrupt sleep, such as electronic devices before bedtime. Investing in FresHotel’s Protect-A-Bed waterproof mattress protectors and pillow protectors is a smart decision for any boarding school that wants to prioritise the health and well-being of its students.
