Electric Bariatric Hi-Low Bed with Side Rails and Hand Control

Adjustable, Sturdy and Safe Bariatric Hi-Low Bed for Home and Facility Care

Finding a bed that is strong, safe, and comfortable for bariatric users can be a significant challenge for individuals and caregivers. The strain of daily transfers and the worry of potential falls are constant concerns. A standard bed often fails to provide the necessary support or adjustability, leading to discomfort for the user and physical strain for those providing care.

The Electric Bariatric Hi-Low Bed with Side Rails and Hand Control is engineered to address these challenges directly. With a robust construction designed in Germany supporting up to 220kg, it provides peace of mind and stability. Its key feature is the electric hi-low function, allowing the bed to be lowered to a safe 23cm to minimise injury from falls, or raised to 83cm to create an ergonomic height for caregiver assistance, reducing back strain. The four-section lying surface enables various positions for comfort, all managed via a simple hand control, empowering users with greater independence.

Why choose this bariatric bed?

• Enhanced Safety: Integrated wooden side rails and an ultra-low height of 23cm significantly reduce the risk of injury from falls.
• Bariatric Strength: Engineered in Germany to support a user weight of up to 220kg, offering robust and reliable stability.
• Versatile Comfort: The 4-section lying surface can be adjusted into various sitting and lying positions using the simple hand control.
• Easier Caregiving: The electric hi-low adjustment (23cm to 83cm) allows carers to set the bed at a safe working height, making transfers and assistance easier.
• User Independence: A simple hand control with a locking function allows the user to adjust their own position, promoting dignity and autonomy.

How the Electric Bariatric Hi-Low Bed is used day to day

• Lowering the bed to its minimum height at night for safe sleeping.
• Raising the head section to a comfortable semi-upright position for reading, eating, or watching television.
• Adjusting the bed to a suitable height for a carer to assist with personal care without straining their back.
• Elevating the bed to its full height for seamless, level transfers to and from a wheelchair or patient lifter.
• Using the hand control to find the perfect sleeping or resting position throughout the day and night.

Fit, setup and suitability

Before purchasing, it is important to ensure this bed suits your space and needs. Please check the external dimensions (133cm x 217cm) to confirm it will fit comfortably in the intended room, leaving enough space for caregivers to move around it. The bed provides a 15cm clearance from the floor, which is designed to accommodate most mobile patient lifters. This bed is ideal for bariatric users weighing up to 220kg who require a durable, adjustable bed for comfort and safety at home or in a care facility. The attractive Havanna timber finish on the end panels allows it to blend in with home decor.

Care and maintenance

To maintain the bed, regularly wipe down the frame, side rails, and mattress platform with a damp cloth and a mild, non-abrasive detergent. Ensure the bed is unplugged before cleaning. Periodically check that the hand control and power cords are free from damage and that all moving parts operate smoothly and quietly.
