I kneel on mattress and ease both far-side top and bottom corners of mattress into corners of double fitted sheet by lifting the mattress corner up a bit. When that is done pull top half of sheet across and ease nearside top corner of mattress into corner of fitted sheet. Pull the remaining bottom corner of sheet down to the bottom and tuck under cut-off corner of the mattress. Our fitted sheet has elastic all around it so it stays firmly in place. Our double fitted sheet is fitted on top of a mattress topper with it's corner tucked under the cut off corner of the mattress too.

I bought a stretchy fitted sheet, elasticated all the way round, I kneel on the matress put on one corner at a time, because it's stretchy it sort of finds it's own way around the matress, and it fits the cut off well too and doesn't move.

We too use the stretchy fitted sheet tactic to good effect, not easy but easier than using flat sheets and they ain't as expensive as  the 'proper' shaped ones.
