The Woburn Ultra-Low Profiling Bed is a thoughtfully engineered care solution designed to prioritise safety, comfort and ease of use across a wide range of care and community environments. Distinguished by its exceptionally low minimum platform height of just 67mm from floor level, this bed offers a unique approach to risk reduction without compromising functionality or durability. By allowing the sleeping surface to be positioned extremely close to the ground, the bed supports care strategies that minimise the consequences of accidental rolling, making it particularly suitable where the use of side rails may not be appropriate or desirable.
Unlike conventional profiling beds, which often rely on raised side rails as a primary safety measure, the Woburn Ultra-Low Profiling Bed takes a different approach. Its ultra-low positioning significantly reduces the distance to the floor, lowering the potential impact should the user roll from the mattress. In many cases, this allows individuals to roll safely onto the floor or onto a fall mat, helping to reduce the likelihood of injury while maintaining dignity and freedom of movement during rest. This design philosophy makes the bed especially valuable in environments where a balance between safety and user comfort is essential.
Beyond its impressive low height capability, the bed offers a fully functioning four-section profiling platform, enabling precise adjustment of the backrest, knee break and overall height through a simple handset control. These adjustments support comfortable positioning throughout the day and night, whether the user requires a reclined resting position, pressure-relieving postures or assistance with activities such as eating, reading or social interaction. The electric backrest and knee break work in harmony with a mechanically supported lower leg section, creating smooth and supportive transitions between positions.
A key feature supplied as standard is the Trendelenburg function, which allows the bed to be angled to support specific clinical or comfort needs. When used in combination with the knee break, this function can help create a seated effect, offering improved postural support and comfort. This versatility enables carers to adapt the bed to changing needs without the requirement for additional equipment, enhancing both practicality and efficiency in daily care routines.
The Woburn Ultra-Low Profiling Bed is designed to integrate seamlessly into a wide variety of settings, from residential care homes and nursing facilities to community and supported living environments. Its robust construction ensures long-term reliability, while its clean, modern appearance allows it to blend discreetly into both clinical and non-clinical spaces. The bed is fully compliant with relevant legislation and guidance, offering reassurance that it meets established safety and quality standards.
Attention has also been given to aesthetics and personalisation. The bed is available with enclosed headboard and footboard options, finished in oak or walnut, with a full range of colours available on request. This allows the bed to complement surrounding furniture and décor, helping to create a more welcoming and less institutional atmosphere. For additional comfort, padded headboards can also be specified, enhancing the overall user experience.
Key FeaturesTo support a wide range of pressure care and comfort requirements, the bed is compatible with a selection of active and static mattresses, including advanced airflow systems and high-quality foam options. These mattresses (sold separately and available on request) are designed to fit the bed precisely, ensuring optimal performance and maintaining the safety benefits of the ultra-low platform, allowing care providers to select a solution that aligns with individual needs.
Practicality is further enhanced through a range of optional extras, such as a bed length extension to accommodate taller users and an overbed light to improve visibility during night-time care or reading. These additions allow the bed to be tailored to specific requirements without compromising its core safety features.
Safety is embedded throughout the design. The bed operates on a low-voltage power supply, ensuring there is no mains voltage present on the bed chassis and reducing the risk of electric shock. A lockable handset prevents unintended operation, while an in-built emergency battery backup ensures essential functions remain available in the event of a power interruption. Braked wheel castors provide stability when the bed is stationary and smooth manoeuvrability when repositioning is required, with wheels that can be securely locked into place.
The bed also incorporates in-built autoregression, using a sliding backrest that eases the user into a seated position while reducing pressure on the abdomen and other sensitive areas. This thoughtful feature helps maintain comfort during position changes and can contribute to improved tolerance of upright postures over longer periods.
Maintenance and longevity have been carefully considered. Quick-release actuators, replaceable control boards and actuator pistons allow for straightforward servicing, helping to minimise downtime and extend the life of the bed. Easy-clean surfaces support effective infection control practices and comply with MHRA guidelines, making routine cleaning simple and efficient.
Supplied with a comprehensive user manual and designed for straightforward installation, the Woburn Ultra-Low Profiling Bed offers a dependable and adaptable solution for modern care environments. Backed by a 7-year warranty on the frame and 5-year warranties on the woodwork and electrics, it provides confidence in both quality and long-term performance.
