S 582 low-height bed - 2

A bed designed to protect your fall-prone patients From listening attentively to our customers’ and healthcare providers’ feedback over a number of years, we understand that older and more dependent patients, as well as those who are distressed by their condition, run a considerably higher risk of falling whilst in hospital. The S 582 low-height bed has been designed specifically to offer patients maximum protection in order to reduce the risk of falls and their consequences, such as delayed rehabilitation, loss of autonomy, increased costs and, in some cases, litigation. Low height helps...

Help eliminate patients’ fear of falling Complementary to the bed’s low height, ensuring patient protection and reducing the risk of falls, are the telescopic Assist side rails which bring an extra dimension of safety to patients. When raised to the first level at the head end, just above the mattress, not only do they help an independent patient get in and out of bed safely and comfortably, but also they outline the perimeter of the bed and restore the patient’s confidence. Secure patient access in and out of bed Another major advantage of such a low height is the ease by which patients...

Fostering patient autonomy Furthermore, the Assist side rails provide valuable and secure support to enable patients to push themselves up and to leave the bed from the side. The easy-to-grip Assist side rails allow patients to turn and reposition themselves safely in bed, without any feelings of restraint, thereby encouraging patient autonomy. Secure and “active” sitting The very low height of the bed enables patients to position their knees above the pelvis, thus creating a secure seated position at the edge of the bed, prior to bed egress. The bed design allows patients to place their...
