Wipe Clean Material for Effortless Maintenance
Accidents and spillages are common occurrences and it is essential to invest in bed accessories that repel liquids or food to prolong their life. These Entrapment Avoidance Cradles are manufactured from a hydrophobic, wipe clean material that does not absorb liquids or spillages, ensuring maintenance is fast and easy.
Prevent Entrapment and Reduce Risk of Bruising
Patients who suffer from involuntary movements or seizures can easily get their arms trapped underneath pressure adjusting mattresses due to the gaps that appear on either side. The Entrapment Avoidance Cradle significantly reduces the risk of residents becoming trapped by filling open spaces, creating a seal to prevent patients pushing their limbs between the bed sides and mattress.
