of the medical supervision and nursing staff in charge � Corresponding measures should be
noted in the shift report to guarantee a correct shift handover.
- Only medical supervisory staff may use special positions, such as Trendelenburg, Anti-Tren-
delenburg, supine position with knee flexion or relative lowered head position as a shock po-
sition. These functions must be locked for patients and residents, since this could otherwise
result in hazards.
The safety notes in the specific product instructions for use must be observed, since hazards
could otherwise occur.
- Only side guards may be used on the beds which are also permitted for that particular bed
type, since increased risk of accident could otherwise occur.
- The side rails/side guards must be checked for possible damage each time before they
are used, and checked that they are securely attached to the bed and that the safety lock
functions correctly! Details on the correct handling of the side guards can be found in the
respective product instructions for use.
- The use of the handset by the resident/patient himself lies exclusively at the discretion of
and in the responsibility of the medical supervision and nursing staff in charge. Correspond-
ing measures should be noted in the shift report or in the nursing documentation to guaran-
tee a correct shift handover and traceability of usage rights.
If the handset is not to be used by the resident/patient himself, then it must be protected from
being accessed by this person and from becoming trapped, for example by attaching it to the
foot end of the bed.
The handset must not fall on the ground, be subject to heavy weight or have liquids poured on
it. It should be cleaned with cleaning cloths used for computer keyboards. If there is damage
to the mechanics or from dampness, the handset must be replaced immediately. The cables
must also be checked at frequent regular intervals.
