Baltic Turning Bed

The Baltic bed is able to support and help clients with complex needs such as Cerebral Palsy and Multiple Sclerosis, facilitating independence and reducing the time and cost spent on care. The Baltic bed has the following movement options: fully profiling, high/low, turning, trendelenberg and reverse trendelenberg. The Baltic can aid in pressure sore prevention through being able to alleviate the client of any built up pressure or stress in their back or other areas of the body preventing any further discomfort. The Baltic can be designed to match the physical measurements and requirements of each individual client with a paediatric version available for children and a bariatric version with a maximum weight limit of 60 stone (381 kg).

The Baltic’s features are not just designed to benefit the client but to have a positive effect on their carers as well. The Baltic has a height adjustable mechanism which prevents carers from putting their body under any serious strain when helping the client in and out of bed.

The Automatic turning option is one of the most notable features which the Baltic can be installed with. For people who have complex needs but do not have a bed such as the Baltic catered to them, they may require carers at night to attend to them and to reposition their body on a regular basis to alleviate stress and discomfort. This has a long-term negative impact on the lives of both the client and the carer by giving each of them a low quality of sleep. This function allows the Baltic to reposition clients correctly and at the appropriate intervals catered to their requirements removing the need for night time carers and by extension reduce the cost spent on them giving both the client and carer an uninterrupted, better quality of sleep.

The Baltic can be personalized to the client’s own preferences and blend well within the bedroom with a wide range of colours to choose from. The Baltic’s features have enabled many patients with complex needs to grow and develop at a significant pace and return home from hospital earlier than anticipated.
