Royale Multi-Motion Bed – King Single

Adjustable beds offer several clinical benefits, including falls prevention, safer manual handling, comfort and pain relief, independence for individuals with limited mobility, optimised pressure care, improved breathing, enhanced circulation, and reduced symptoms of acid reflux.

Adjustable beds can be lowered closer to the floor, which decreases the distance between the bed and the floor, thereby reducing the risk of injury if a fall occurs.

By allowing carers to adjust the bed height to an optimal level, adjustable beds make manual handling tasks safer and easier, reducing the strain on carers during transfers and other care-related tasks.

Yes, adjustable beds offer personalised support, enabling users to find a more comfortable sleeping position. This can help reduce pain and alleviate discomfort, particularly for those with chronic pain conditions.

Adjustable beds empower individuals with limited mobility by giving them control over the bed’s positioning. This allows them to adjust the bed to assist with functional tasks such as getting in and out of bed, as well as finding a comfortable sleeping position.

Adjustable beds can be positioned to optimise pressure care. For instance, raising the head of the bed and using the knee break can prevent shear and friction, reducing the risk of pressure injuries.

By allowing the upper torso to be elevated, adjustable beds can help facilitate unrestricted breathing, which is particularly beneficial for individuals with respiratory issues.

Yes, adjustable beds can elevate the legs, which helps improve blood flow and circulation. This is especially beneficial for individuals with circulatory issues or those at risk of developing blood clots.

By elevating the head of the bed, adjustable beds can prevent stomach acid from flowing back into the oesophagus, thereby reducing symptoms of acid reflux.

The Trendelenburg position involves tilting the bed so that the head is lower than the feet. Historically, it was used to treat hypotension, but recent evidence suggests it may decrease cardiac and lung function and increase cranial pressure. Therefore, it is generally not recommended for prolonged use unless under medical supervision. The Trendelenburg position may also be used temporarily to help reposition a patient who has slid too far down into the bed. This provides a mechanical advantage for carers to move the patient, though it does not have a direct therapeutic action.

The Reverse Trendelenburg position tilts the bed so that the feet are lower than the head. It is often used to reduce gastroesophageal reflux and intracranial pressure. However, similar to the Trendelenburg position, it should not be used for extended periods unless under medical supervision.
