The Drive DeVilbiss Bradshaw Bariatric Low Bed is a carefully engineered profiling bed that combines enhanced safety, advanced comfort, and superior functionality, making it an ideal choice for bariatric patients in both professional care environments and home settings. With its ultra-low height range of just 26cm to 62.5cm, this bed reduces the risk of falls while supporting a wide variety of medical and daily living needs.
As a bariatric profiling bed, it is built to withstand higher weight capacities while still delivering the comfort, flexibility, and advanced features that patients and caregivers require. Designed with both patient dignity and caregiver efficiency in mind, the Bradshaw Bariatric Low Bed ensures that care can be delivered safely, smoothly, and without unnecessary strain.
Ultra-Low Height for Enhanced Safety
One of the standout features of this bed is its ultra-low starting height of 26cm. This design element significantly reduces the risk of injury in the event of a fall, offering peace of mind for users who are vulnerable to rolling out of bed or losing balance when entering or exiting.
The bed’s maximum height of 62.5cm makes it equally suitable for caregivers, who can raise it to a more ergonomic working level when delivering care. This wide adjustment range ensures that the bed meets the needs of both users and carers, providing a safe and versatile solution for a wide range of scenarios.
Four-Section Electric Profiling Platform
The four-section electric profiling mattress platform allows patients to be positioned with precision for maximum comfort and clinical benefit.
Backrest Adjustment: Supports comfortable sitting positions for activities such as reading, eating, or conversing.
Knee-Break Adjustment: Elevates the legs to reduce swelling, improve circulation, and relieve pressure.
Lower Leg Adjustment: Offers additional flexibility to support recovery, comfort, and therapeutic needs.
Combined Profiling Options: Ensure that patients can be positioned appropriately for both medical treatments and daily comfort.
These electric adjustments help reduce shear and friction during repositioning, lowering the risk of skin breakdown and pressure ulcers, which are particularly important considerations in bariatric care.
Adjustable Bed-End Mounting
The Drive DeVilbiss Bradshaw Bariatric Low Bed includes adjustable bed-end mounting positions, which allow the mattress platform height to be adapted as needed.
This feature provides greater flexibility for both patients and caregivers, enabling the bed to be tailored to specific requirements. Whether it’s optimising patient comfort, reducing pressure, or ensuring carers can work safely, the adjustable mounting enhances the overall usability of the bed.
Safety and Compliance
Safety is built into every aspect of this bed’s design. The Bradshaw Bariatric Low Bed is fully compliant with IEC 60601-2-52 safety standards, ensuring that it meets stringent international requirements for medical beds.
This certification reflects the bed’s high-quality engineering and reliability, giving care providers confidence in its performance. Safety rails and optional accessories can also be added to further improve protection and peace of mind for patients and carers alike.
User-Friendly Handset Controls
Ease of use is essential in busy care environments, and the Bradshaw Bariatric Low Bed is equipped with a simple, user-friendly handset.
The handset allows both patients and carers to quickly and smoothly adjust the bed to the desired position. With clearly marked functions and responsive operation, it ensures that repositioning can be carried out without difficulty, even in urgent situations.
For safety, the handset also includes lockable functions, preventing accidental adjustments or misuse when control needs to remain with caregivers.
Comfort and Dignity for Bariatric Patients
Bariatric patients often require specialist equipment that goes beyond standard medical furniture. The Bradshaw Bariatric Low Bed has been specifically designed to support higher weight capacities, ensuring stability and reliability without compromising on comfort.
The profiling features and ultra-low design allow patients to be positioned in ways that promote independence, dignity, and comfort, whether they are resting, sitting up, or preparing to exit the bed.
