ENTRAPMENT GUIDELINES
The use of Bed Rails is dependent on the setting as well as the facilities protocols. Proactive Medical does not make product recommendations for any given patient. Those decisions are the responsibility of the health care facility and/or health care professional(s) familiar with each patient’s unique requirements. Proactive Medical support surfaces are made to fit standard hospital and health care facility beds. However, variations in bed rail dimensions, mattress compression based on patient size and shape, conditions such as dementia, seizure disorders, sleeping problems, incontinence, and restlessness could create an entrapment risk. Proper patient assessment, monitoring, equipment use, and maintenance are required to reduce entrapment risk.

INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

Step 2
You may place a thin cotton sheet over the quilted mattress top cover.
Step 3
Hang the control unit over the frame or board at the foot end of the bed using the hooks attached to the control unit. Make sure the control unit is secured.
