This section is for individuals with special needs and can be used in residential homes, care homes and hospitals.
A proper assessment by a suitably qualified professional is important, in order to make sure that the correct piece of equipment is chosen.
High and Low Profiling Beds
Profiling beds which are electrically adjusted enable the user's position to be changed without strain for anyone involved. The most common profiling beds are three and four part. Either of these will allow the backrest / pillow area of the bed to be raised, enabling the user to be more upright, while also lifting an area under the knees, to stop the user slipping down in the bed. A four part bed can be more comfortable, as it keeps the bottom horizontal while raising the knees. Two part beds just have a rising headrest area, while five part profiling beds offer more variability in the head / back support area.
Whilst a profiling bed will give greater independence to a user, the needs of the staff also need to be a consideration as it is those people who will assist the patient with their day-to-day tasks but will also help to prevent strain injuries. Beds are sturdily constructed for durability using materials which are easy to clean. Good ground clearance allows for the use of hoists etc.
Advantages of a profiling system:
- Change position without manual involvement, risk of injury to the carer is eliminated, independence and decorum of the user are maintained
- Could be possible for someone to get out of bed unaided as the bed can raise you into sitting position first
- Respiratory and circulatory difficulties can be eased
- Using a hoist is easier
- Our profiling beds have a height adjustment, enabling the carer to work at a safe height when applying treatments or even moving to a stretcher
Mattresses for use on profiling beds are available from OroMed and are tailor made to suit the person using the bed. There are foam and sprung versions available, however, the ultimate in comfort for a person who has limited mobility and spends a great deal of time in bed is a memory foam pressure relief mattress and this should always be chosen when selecting a mattress for that purpose.
Positioning Systems
An automatic adjustable bed is ideal for those people who cannot alter their position independently, OroMed's adjustable automatic bed provides this care. Our sleep system allows you to programme the position that is most comfortable on your back, front and side, when you turn over during sleep the bed will automaticallu adjust the mattress to your preferred sleeping position (which is set by memory).
Pressure Relief
For immobile people and those who are high risk of developing pressure sores, or who already have them, a pressure relief system must be integrated to help relieve those symptoms
Our sleep systems are tailor made to help those who suffer from pressure sores. Our visco-elastic mattress, molds to the shape of your body which distributes the weight of the body and thus relieving pressure sores.
Our mattress with a recess is a sandwich configuration, the top section being made of high density visco-elastic slow recovery foam which is sensitive to body weight and temperature. However, we also have a that little something extra - memory foam mattress with a recess.....
Our extensive range of standard and special beds with matched mattresses and accessories are all at affordable prices, with discounts based on volume.
