INSTRUCTIONS FOR USE

1. INTRODUCTION

Thank you for purchasing this accessory. These instructions for

use cover Bradshaw Bariatric Bed Extension

(1275/BAR/EX/COLOUR). This accessory is only intended for

use with the Bradshaw Bariatric and Bradshaw Bariatric Low

beds (1275/BAR & 1275/BAR/LOW). Your new accessories will

offer a taller occupant a safer and a more comfortable

experience without the loss of the bed’s original features.

These instructions and the bed instructions for use should be

read carefully and fully understood before use. Please ensure

the length extension has been fitted correctly and securely. If

you have any questions concerning the operation or

maintenance, please contact your provider/supplier who will

provide you with expert professional advice (contact details

can be found at the end of this booklet).

In line with our policy of continuous improvement we welcome any suggestions that could lead to product

improvement.

Please dispose of the packaging in a sensible and environmental fashion.

▪ Before attempting to assemble the extension onto the bed ensure these instructions and the

bed instructions for use have been read and fully understood.

▪ Ensure the bed is unoccupied prior to fitment/removal of the accessory.

▪ Ensure a risk assessment in line with your local health and safety policy is undertaken.

▪ Never attempt to fit the extension when side rails are fitted‐ risk of side rails falling and creating

a crushing hazard. Always remove the side rails first.

▪ If the bed is in its extended state and with the leg extension profiled an opening can be created

at the foot end of the bed; a patient risk assessment must be performed to assess if this poses a

potential hazard to the patient – if so the leg section must be locked out prior to use.

▪ The manufacturer recommends that the extension is only to be used for individuals who require

it due to their physical height requirements, it is not to be fitted to the bed as the default for all

occupants. A patient risk assessment must be performed to assess the need for the extension

8. SIDERAIL SAFETY NOTICE

Reha-bed recommends the use of Reha-bed siderails with Reha-bed beds.

The Medicines & Healthcare products Regulatory Agency has highlighted potential areas of risk which are listed

below, together with their recommended actions.

RISK

ACTION

Entrapment and

asphyxiation

Beds fitted with

bed siderails pose

a potential risk of

death from

entrapment and

asphyxiation

All staff responsible for the purchase, selection for use, positioning and adjusting of bed

siderails should be aware of the potential risk of entrapment and asphyxiation when a bed is

occupied.

Care must be taken when positioning and adjusting bed siderails to ensure that any spaces

between the bed siderails, mattress or bed frame will not allow entrapment of the occupant’s

head or body. In addition, consideration should be given to the size and physiological

condition of the occupant and an assessment undertaken to ensure that the spacing between

the bars of the bed siderails is not wide enough to present a potential risk of entrapment and

asphyxiation.

All staff responsible need to be aware that increased vigilance is required when nursing

patients in beds fitted with bed siderails.

Bed siderail

incompatibility

All staff responsible for the purchase, selection for use, positioning and adjusting of bed

siderails should be aware of the potential risk of entrapment and asphyxiation when a bed is

occupied.

▪ Bed siderails should be checked for compatibility with the beds they are being fitted to so

that only the correct type of bed siderails are used. If in doubt, contact your supplier.

▪ Staff and carers need to ensure that procedures are in place at the time of fitting,

allowing bed siderails to be assessed in conjunction with the bed and the occupant to

determine if any risk of entrapment exists (consideration should be given to the

occupant’s physical size).
