About the Alerta Lomond Bariatric Profiling Bed
The Alerta Lomond Bariatric Profiling Bed has been carefully designed to deliver a premium level of care, combining strength, versatility, and comfort in one sophisticated package. Built to accommodate bariatric users, this bed provides exceptional support while maintaining an attractive and homely appearance that suits both residential and care environments. With its generous 120cm wide mattress platform, the bed offers additional space and reassurance for those who need more room to move and rest comfortably.
One of the most distinctive features of the Alerta Lomond Bariatric Profiling Bed is its height adjustability. The bed can be lowered to just 20cm from the floor, allowing safe and easy access for users, and raised to a maximum of 80cm to give carers an ideal working height. This full range of motion helps minimise strain on carers while ensuring users remain comfortable, supported, and secure at all times.
Enhanced Comfort and Support
Every aspect of the Alerta Lomond Bariatric Bed has been developed to maximise comfort and ease of use. The 10-function lockable handset allows for effortless operation, giving users and caregivers complete control over the bed’s positioning. It enables precise adjustment of the backrest and leg sections, alongside Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg tilt positions for therapeutic benefits and improved circulation. This makes it suitable for a wide range of medical needs and daily living requirements.
The electrically adjustable backrest allows the user to find a comfortable upright position for reading, eating, or watching television, while the knee brake adjustment and click-stop lower leg elevation support optimal body alignment and relieve pressure on the lower limbs. These advanced profiling functions help promote circulation and reduce the risk of pressure-related discomfort.
Durable and Practical Design
Crafted for long-term performance, the Alerta Lomond Bariatric Profiling Bed is available in a choice of elegant oak or walnut finishes, allowing it to blend naturally into any setting. The solid construction provides strength and stability, while maintaining a warm and welcoming appearance. This thoughtful design makes it equally suited for private homes and professional care facilities.
The bed’s assembly has been simplified for ease of use, featuring tool-free installation and dismantling. An innovative transport system allows the bed to be moved or stored conveniently, making it a practical choice for environments where space and mobility are important. Despite its robust build, the bed remains highly manoeuvrable and easy to handle.
Safety and Reliability
Safety is central to the design of the Alerta Lomond Bariatric Profiling Bed. It is fitted with four durable braking 3-inch castors, ensuring that the bed remains securely in place during use. The four-section mattress platform includes integrated mattress grips, providing a stable surface that prevents unwanted movement. With a maximum safe working load of 250kg (39 stone), this bed is engineered to offer exceptional reliability for larger users, maintaining stability and strength throughout its operation.
The electrical components of the bed are designed and tested to meet stringent safety standards, providing consistent and secure operation. The motor system operates quietly and smoothly, ensuring minimal disruption and creating a peaceful care environment. For additional peace of mind, the bed is supported by a three-year frame warranty and a two-year warranty on all motors and electrical parts.
Pressure Care Compatibility
To complement its advanced profiling functions, the Alerta Lomond Bariatric Profiling Bed is compatible with a wide range of pressure care mattresses. Users can choose between static foam mattresses for up to high-risk care, alternating pressure mattresses for very high-risk users, or a hybrid mattress system that offers both static and dynamic pressure relief. This flexibility ensures that each user’s individual comfort and clinical needs are met.
Summary
The Alerta Lomond Bariatric Profiling Bed represents a perfect balance of functionality, comfort, and reliability. It is purpose-built to support the needs of bariatric users, while offering a stylish, easy-to-operate, and durable solution for care environments. From its height-adjustable frame to its multiple profiling options and attractive finish choices, every feature has been designed to improve user well-being and make caregiving safer and easier.
