SEERS Medical Signature Low Home Care Bed

Falls from bed are one of the most common causes of injury in a nursing home or home care environment, so everything possible should be done to reduce this risk. The SEERS Medical Signature Low Home Care Bed is designed with a low height of just 13.5cm off the ground, minimising any risk to the patient from falls. Smooth and safe height adjustments are provided by the GoLow GoSlow movement system, while the Perceptive Profiling System minimises patient shear and friction during profiling to make this bed as comfortable and safe as possible.

Low Height for Safety

While standard profiling beds may not seem excessively high off the ground, the extra distance can present a significant risk of injury for vulnerable patients. This bed positions the patient at just 13.5cm off the ground at its lowest height, minimising any risk of injury from falls. This bed is best used with a crash or fall mat, as is displayed in the image above.

GoLow GoSlow System

While efficient height adjustment is important, ensuring the beds movements are smooth enough to avoid jarring the patient is crucial for both safety and comfort. The GoLow GoSlow movement system makes sure movements are slow and smooth, avoiding any abrupt stops when the bed reaches its maximum or minimum height.

Shear Reduction Profiling

Bedbound patients are often at risk of pressure sore development, which can be exacerbated by the friction and shear forces that are placed on the patient's skin during reclining and other profiling functions. The Perceptive Profiling System of the Signature Standard Bed allows all sections of the bed to move as one, minimising friction and shear forces to put as little stress on the skin of the patient as possible.

Range of Positioning Options

This bed is fully equipped to allow a wide range of patient positions, allowing nurses and carers to put the patient in the perfect position for medical procedures and comfort. Allowing both Trendelenburg and reverse-Trendelenburg positioning, as well as vascular and leg rest positioning, this bed provides a remarkable range of options at this price point.

Hygienic Design

The Signature Standard Home Care Bed is built for safety, meaning all precautions were taken with regards to hygiene and cleanliness. The frame is powder-coated and antibacterial, while the enforced PU deck slats are easy to clean, offering enhanced infection control and reducing maintenance costs over time.
