Manufacturer's description
A telescopic bed rail with easy adjustment which allows the cotsides to fit single or double beds. The spring release allows the side rails to be lowered to the bedside.
Care must be taken when using cotsides to ensure that the users head or any other part of the body cannot become trapped either between the rails and the mattress or other parts of the bed. For added safety a mesh fabric sleeve is available.
Help and advice
It is essential that bed rails are suitable for the people who are using them and compatible with the particular beds being used. Bed rails should never be used to restrain a person.
If the user is likely to attempt to climb over the rails and fall from an even greater height, it may be worth considering placing a mattress directly onto the floor. Caring for someone at floor level can be problematic, but in certain cases it provides a safer and more dignified solution.
Side rails can pose a risk of serious injury, for example if part of the body gets trapped between them. Thus it is essential that care is taken when selecting, positioning and adjusting the rails and also when choosing or changing the type of mattress to be used in a bed with rails so as not to put the user at risk. Read further important safety information on bed rails.
