Safety Tips
Bed Positions
Always leave the bed system in the low position when a patient is to be left
unattended.
Siderails
Siderails are not intended to be used as restraint devices. Medical personnel
should determine the appropriate use of siderails to ensure patient safety.
Observe tubes and cables closely during articulations. Always use good lines
placement techniques, particularly as the head section rises.
Brakes
Always set the brakes when the bed system is occupied. Push and pull the bed
system sideways to ensure that the brakes have engaged.
Brakes must be set during chair mode, patient egress, ingress, transfers, and
when the system is occupied (except during transport). Brakes should be
periodically tested when the bed system is left unoccupied.
