Operation
3.1
Hand check (function control)
The hand check is used to ensure that the mattress
is working properly. This must be performed
regularly; we recommend once per shift, or every
eight hours. Open the cover and insert your hand
between the air cells directly underneath the user’s
pelvic region, use a vertical hand. There should be a
clearance of 2-3 fingers between mattress base and
the user.
3.2
Operations Evac Cover
This section will only explain how to use the Evac cover. Refer to your local evacuation
routines to perform the whole evacuation safely.
Evac cover is a mattress cover with a built-in function for evacuation of bed-bound users.
The Evac cover is equipped with three handles on the head and foot end. On the sides, there
are handles with velcro straps. These straps are to be used to fixate the user to the mattress
before commencing the evacuation. The straps are folded in the protective pockets on the side
of the mattress with the ends sticking out to ensure that they are easy to pull out.
Note!
• It is recommended to make the bed with a bed sheet.
