Woburn Community 1200 Profiling Bed for Wider Comfort and Safer Supported CareWoburn Community 1200 Profiling Bed for Wider Comfort and Safer Supported Care
The Woburn Community 1200 Profiling Bed is a carefully engineered wide profiling bed designed to support comfort, dignity, and safety in community and care-based environments. Built to the same high manufacturing standards as narrower models in the range, this bed offers a generous sleeping surface that helps users feel more at ease, particularly those accustomed to sleeping in a double-sized bed. The increased width provides reassurance and comfort, helping to reduce feelings of restriction while allowing natural movement throughout the night.
Designed with both the user and the caregiver in mind, the Woburn Community 1200 supports safer daily routines without compromising on appearance or performance. The wider platform allows individuals to roll more freely while in bed, which can help reduce the risk of injury for those who move frequently during sleep. This additional space also supports improved comfort during repositioning, personal care, and assisted transfers, making it well suited to home care, residential settings, and other community environments.
The bed is not intended as a bariatric solution; however, it offers a strong and stable structure with a safe working load of up to 30 stone / 193 kg. This makes it suitable for a broad range of users who require a wider bed for comfort rather than weight-related needs. Its thoughtful proportions strike a balance between increased space for the user and practical usability within domestic or care-based rooms.
A key strength of the Woburn Community 1200 Profiling Bed is its compliance with current legislation relevant to community care settings. This ensures peace of mind for providers and families alike, knowing the bed has been designed to meet recognised safety and performance standards. Every element has been considered to support daily use while maintaining long-term reliability.
To support effective infection control, the headboard and footboard are finished with a durable vinyl wrap. This surface is easy to clean and maintain, helping to reduce the risk of cross-contamination in shared or frequently used environments. The clean, professional finish also allows the bed to blend comfortably into both clinical and home-style surroundings, avoiding an overly institutional appearance.

The profiling functions of the bed allow for precise positioning to support comfort, circulation, and respiratory wellbeing. Adjustable sections make it easier for users to sit up, rest, or change position throughout the day and night. For caregivers, these functions help reduce physical strain during routine tasks such as repositioning or assisting with meals and personal care.
A wide selection of optional accessories (sold separately) allows the Woburn Community 1200 to be configured to individual needs. Side rails are available for added reassurance and support, designed with a two-handed operating mechanism to help prevent accidental release. The rails must be slightly lifted with one hand and released with the other, ensuring they cannot be lowered unintentionally by the bed user. This thoughtful design makes them among the most secure options available, supporting safety without compromising dignity.
For environments where monitoring is required, the bed can be paired with the Guardian Wireless Alarm System, offering an additional layer of reassurance for carers and families. A Trendelenburg function is also available where clinically appropriate, allowing for specialist positioning needs under professional guidance. The optional platform extension further enhances versatility, accommodating taller users comfortably without affecting the overall stability of the bed.
