Here’s why vertical alignment is vital in long-term care:
Superior fall prevention: when the user is kept in vertical alignment all access-points in the user’s bed environment remain safely within reach.
Superior staff protection: fixed-deck beds cannot keep the user in alignment necessitating frequent turning or repositioning of the user, increasing the prospect of staff injury.
Superior protection from shearing: the user glides back to original position following HOB elevation. This protects sensitive skin areas such as sacrum, heels and elbows from skin shearing induced by friction with the sheets.
Smart Stop® prevents falls by prohibiting the user from trying to egress from a dangerously too-low level. Lowering down into low height zone is only possible using the FEC. Flashing indicators display as bed goes into low height zone. Under-bed indicators can also be switched over to discreet nighttime floor level illumination.
Ergonomic 3-position assist device locks at right angle to the bed for sturdy ingress/egress support, protecting both user and caregiver. Both 3-position and half-length assist device made of molded, pleasing-to-touch materials.
