Product Information

Many adjustable height beds do not stop automatically if there is an object underneath and there is a risk of entrapment. The SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disc is a transfer aid for users with limited mobility. People who are able to stand but cannot readily move their legs will find the rotating disc helps make transferring easier. replacement raisers - existing bed legs or castors are removed and replaced by raisers. Screw or bayonet fittings are available;

Transfer devices are aids that can help when you have limited mobility and need to move more easily to and from a wheelchair bed car bathtub or toilet. Devices include transfer boards transfer poles and pivoting devices that you can step on and swivel to move from one position to another.

An angled stem (right) permits a natural way of moving when the user gets up to a standing position, and also allows the user to lean safely and comfortably against the stem and supporting handles when being assisted to dress. Both domestic and hospital versions of variable posture beds are available. The domestic ones tend to be smaller with a wooden or padded headboard and generally look more homely. The hospital versions are larger, usually with a metal frame, more resilient and often have a choice of nursing functions. bed rails should never be used to restrain a person who may attempt to climb over them. They risk falling from a greater height; Sometimes it is regarded as home nursing equipment, i.e. that which a community nurse considers necessary to help him or her carry out nursing duties effectively. Examples of items that may be supplied by the community nurse are: if the height of the bed has been raised (e.g. by adding an extra mattress for pressure relief) can the hoist still lift the person so that his/her bottom clears the mattress surface?

If a person is unable to take any of their weight through their legs, advice should ALWAYS be sought from a therapist as to the safest method of assisting or moving them out of bed. Most people are not strong enough to lift someone (including many children) from the bed onto a chair/wheelchair/commode. Equipment which will do the lifting instead is available or sometimes the person may be able to slide across. if raisers are recommended to raise the bed for hoist access, ensure (if the increased height would make existing transfers more difficult) that they are only fitted when the hoist is available for use; ensure that there is enough room for the base to slide under a divan bed and, where possible, fasten it to the bed headboard for greater stability; You don't have to physically buy the goods in person. If your parent, guardian or wife or husband buys the goods and services for you, then you won't be charged VAT. What counts as personal or domestic use? However, other items are regarded as daily living equipment, i.e. that which enables a person to get on with daily living, and may make them more independent.manually operated beds are controlled by a foot-operated gas-assisted mechanism, a lever or winding mechanism or a ratchet system. The carer can find all of these quite hard work and the user cannot control the adjustment. A pivot transfer disc like the SafetySure Pivot Disc is a useful device when you&rsquore strong enough to stand but unable to pivot to the side to perform the transfer. With a transfer disc in place on the floor a caregiver helps the seated patient place their feet on the disc then provides support as he or she stands on it. A transfer disc can be turned up to 90 degrees enabling you to reach and sit on the target surface such as a wheelchair. Always ensure that the appropriate model of raiser is used for the bed leg, e.g. castor, square leg. The following are examples of types that are available:

If you fail to return any VAT exemption forms to us we WILL charge your card for the outstanding VAT.Transfer boards and slings: Transfer boards are flat boards used to bridge gaps between surfaces, allowing individuals to slide from one surface to another. Slings are fabric or mesh devices used with patient lifts to provide support and comfort during transfers. A semi-standing aid, perhaps combined with a sling enables a user to be transferred and lowered onto a toilet more easily than using a conventional hoist, provided they are able to weight-bear sufficiently. Adjustable height beds can be powered manually or electrically. Manually operated beds usually have a hydraulic mechanism that raises and lowers the bed. This movement may feel jerky as the bed rises. The control is often a foot pump at the side of the bed. It cannot be operated by the user. A small mobile hoist can be used for many handling tasks in and around the home. With the wide range of slings available, it can cater for many different needs and abilities.

Space and environment: Consider the available space in the environment where the lifting aid will be used. Ceiling-mounted systems, for example, require appropriate structural support. if the person also uses a mobile hoist for transfers, ensure that the lifting pole base does not prevent the hoist from being correctly positioned under the bed, and that the overhead arm does not obstruct the lifting boom of the hoist;Disk Write Caching is a feature that improves system performance by enabling write caching on the device. It is a feature, which is available on almost all disk drives these days. The benefit of Disk Write Caching is that it allows applications to run faster by allowing them to proceed without waiting for data write requests to be written to the disk.
