Making the bed:

·         Spread the 1st bed sheet and tuck the bottom side of the bed except for the four corners.

·         Take the loose end of the sheet, about a foot from the corner at the head of the bed and pull it straight out, foaming a flap. Pull up the flap so it is flat.

·         Tuck in the free part of the corner.

·         Pull the flap out toward you and down over the side of the bed. Tuck the flap in.

·         Move to the corner at the foot of the bed on the same side of the bed and repeat the procedure.

·         Spread the second sheet the wrong side up, from the edge of mattress.

·         Put Quilt 6” lower than the 2nd sheet / blanket (quilt)

·         Go towards the foot of the bed and tightly tuck the second sheet, quilt and third sheet together.

·         Maître the corners.

·         Inset the pillows into the new pillowcase and tuck in the loose ends.

·         Repeat this process for the other pillows.

·         Place the pillow on the bed with the tucked edges facing the centre and the tucked flaps on the other side of the pillows.

·         Position the bedspread on the bed with equal amounts hanging over both sides and the foot of the bed.

·         Report to the supervisor if you notice stains or tears in the bedspread.

·         Smooth the bedspread over the pillows to the head of the bed.

·         Tuck the remaining of the bedspread under the front edge of the pillows.
