Side Rail Set-Up
WARNING:
It is recommended to have the side rails
upright at all times while the patient is in the bed.
However, the ultimate decision lies with the medical
personnel who are on site and can fully evaluate all
factors.
WARNING:
If the side rails are not secured in the proper place, entrapment to
the patient may occur. Bed rail entrapment is a serious health risk that can result
in serious injury or even death. Sizewise recommends the care provider be
mindful of the FDA guidelines relevant to bed rail entrapment, as serious injury
can result. These guidelines can be found on the FDA website. It is the care
provider’s ultimate decision whether or not to use bed rails with the patient.
