Bed Fall Mat – Sewn – Budget

Some Patients climb over bed rails, fall to the ground and are injured. A way to help avoid injury is to lower the bed as much as possible and place a Bed Fall Mat (sometimes known as a crash mat) next to the bed, so if the Patient falls out of bed, then they will have a soft surface to land on. This product is designed only for beds which go low to the ground.

• A budget option to help prevent injury from bed falls
• For Patients who cannot walk, but fall from a low bed
• Supplied with a warning sign to avoid a tripping hazard
• Hi-Vis yellow material to warn staff that it is on the floor

ABOUT THE BED FALL MAT – SEWN – BUDGET

This product has a single layer of foam. A warning card is supplied to inform staff that the Mat is in position. This can be displayed in a prominent place to reduce the tripping hazard risk. When not being used the Bed Fall Mat can be folded up and stored behind the bed head, or under the bed.

People can fall in a variety of different ways. Pelican makes no express or implied guarantee that a Patient will not sustain an injury.

If you are concerned about this item slipping on your floor surface, please check out the Non-Slip Mat.

Also available:

• Bed Fall Mat – Sewn – Firmer to walk on, and with better impact absorption than the Budget version. Full length, highly visible webbing edge to warn staff when the Mat is on the floor.
• Bed Fall Mat – Heat Sealed – The best option for Infection Control, which is firm to walk on, has excellent impact absorption, and is 100% Heat Sealed.

You may also want to consider the Bed Side Helper, which could prevent a fall from happening in the first place. The Bed Side Helper is used to help people getting in and out of bed by giving them something to hold on to and may be beneficial for people that suffer from orthostatic hypotension, who become dizzy while standing up from a bed and fall as a result.
