Woburn Community Profiling Bed for Durable and Safe Patient CarerWoburn Community Low Profiling Bed with Side Rails
The Woburn Community Low Profiling Bed has been designed specifically for use in community, residential and care environments where safety, durability and ease of use are essential. It is particularly suitable for individuals who may be at a higher risk of rolling while in bed, offering a reassuringly low entry and exit height that supports safer day-to-day use.
One of the bed’s standout features is its ability to lower to just 220mm from floor level. This ultra-low height significantly reduces the risk of injury should a fall occur and provides peace of mind for carers, families and care providers. When raised, the bed reaches a height of 640mm, creating a safer and more comfortable working position for carers during personal care, repositioning and clinical tasks.
The four-part profiling platform allows smooth electric adjustment of the backrest and knee break, helping users achieve comfortable positions for resting, eating or sitting upright. Mechanical lower leg support enhances comfort, while Trendelenburg positioning comes as standard, offering added flexibility where required. An optional auto-regression backrest gently slides as it raises, reducing pressure on the abdomen and minimising discomfort when moving into a seated position.
Built to withstand the demands of community care, the Woburn Community Low Profiling Bed is engineered for repeated dismantling, transportation and reassembly without compromising performance. Its robust construction and fail-resistant design make it a dependable choice for environments where equipment reliability is critical. The bed is also designed for easy cleaning, supporting high standards of hygiene and compliance with MHRA guidelines.
Safety is further enhanced through a low voltage power supply, ensuring there is no mains voltage present on the bed chassis and reducing the risk of electric shock. An inbuilt emergency battery backup allows essential functions to remain operational during power failures, while a lockable handset prevents accidental or unauthorised operation.
