Dementia Low Bed
Minimising The Risk Of Falling
Collaborating With The Experts
The Dementia Low Bed design has been achieved by collaboration with clinical therapists and experts that have an active interest in dementia. The aim of this bed is to make the user feel safe and secure and to also minimise the risk of falling. There is padding on the headboard, the side rails and on the footboard of the bed, this is to reduce the chances of the user sustaining an injury from knocking their head or their body on a hard surface.

Minimising Falls
During our discussions regarding dementia with therapists it became apparent that there is a risk of the user falling out of the bed. The Dementia Low Bed can go down to a height of 25cm (excluding mattress), you can also minimise the impact of a fall with a crash mat. When raised, the side rails should also act as a preventative measure against falling. The side rails have two settings, when in the lower position they can be used as a point of reference for the edge of the bed by the bed user, when in their higher position with only the head rail raised they can provide assistance for self-transfers.

Lowering the bed to the floor significantly reduces the risk of injuries from a fall from bed. Read More ->
Head-End Split / Assist Rails
Our recommendations for using head-end split / assist rails, means that should the user become distressed and attempt to exit the bed, the risk of injury would be greatly reduced through the use of split / assist rails. By using the top split / assist rails only, the user would likely exit the bed feet first through the foot-end of the bed. Using the top split / assist rails can also be used as a safety barrier so the user cannot roll out of bed, as illustrated below:

Easy to move
The Dementia low bed has a 2+2 lockable undercarriage as standard. This is very well suited for use in an environment where the bed needs to be moved for cleaning or care purposes within the same room. There are two accessible foot pedals at either end of the bed on both sides, which unlock the wheels quickly & easily so the bed can be moved. The bed can also be mobilised at any height, this lowers the risk of injury whilst moving the bed.

Frequently Bought Together
![]() | I would just like to thank you both, and the 2 delivery and installation men who came yesterday for my amazing experience with Bakare Beds Ltd. From the moment, I telephoned as an enquiry, a gentleman named Alex guided me through all the options in order for me to get the perfect bed for my mum who is 82 years old and has a habit of falling out of bed. We conversed regularly on the telephone and he emailed me any information that I needed. Not once was he pushy, he was so helpful and didn’t mind how many questions I asked. When I eventually decided, the process was so smooth and professional and he handed me over to Louise who organised a delivery date and even an approximate time within a 2 hour time scale. She kept in touch with me throughout the whole process. On the day of delivery, as promised, the 2 delivery and installation men arrived 5 minutes early !!….they were there for only 25 minutes but in that time, they installed the bed, explained everything to me and my mum who is also profoundly deaf, set the bed up at exactly the right height for her, made sure it was in the right position, made sure we were confident in using the remote control and left. They were so friendly and helpful and a credit to their profession. From the start of an enquiry to the end result, I would thoroughly recommend all the above people at Bakare Beds. And as to the bed………my mum is completely overjoyed with it. She has been looking for months to find a bed as good as this and now she has. It has leather side rails to keep her from falling out of bed (she feels so safe) and profiles independently for head and feet. Since having this bed she has had the best nights sleep in a long time. Once again thank you Bakare Beds Ltd and I would thoroughly recommend you to anyone else !! Kind Regards. Elaine Office Manager Received 18 February 2016 15:06 |
