Completion of Patient Placement

Home Display

1. Verify patient comfort.
2. Use Home Display for up to 25% uniform pressure adjustment.
• Press left arrow button under SOFT to decrease uniform pressure.
• Press right arrow button under FIRM to increase uniform pressure.
3. If the decision has been made to use side rails, raise and lock side rails.
Serious injury or death can result from the use (potential entrapment) or non-use (potential patient falls) of side
rails or other restraints.
Side Rails / Patient Restraints - Whether and how to use side rails or restraints is a decision that should
be based on each patient's needs and should be made by the patient and the patient's family, physician and
caregivers, with facility protocols in mind. Caregivers should assess risks and bene ts of side rail / restraint
use (including entrapment and patient falls from bed) in conjunction with individual patient needs, and should
discuss use or non-use with patient and / or family. Consider not only the clinical and other needs of the patient
but also the risks of fatal or serious injury from falling out of bed and from patient entrapment in or around the
side rails, restraints or other accessories. In the US, for a description of entrapment hazards, vulnerable patient
pro le and guidance to further reduce entrapment risks, refer to FDA's Hospital Bed System Dimensional
and Assessment Guidance To Reduce Entrapment. Outside the US, consult the local Competent Authority or
Government Agency for Medical Device Safety for speci c local guidance. Consult a caregiver and carefully
consider the use of bolsters, positioning aids or oor pads, especially with confused, restless or agitated
patients. It is recommended that side rails (if used) be locked in the full upright position when the patient is
unattended. Make sure a capable patient knows how to get out of bed safely (and, if necessary, how to release
the side rails) in case of re or other emergency. Monitor patients frequently to guard against patient
entrapment.
i
Adjust bed height to lowest level.
To minimize risks of injury from falls, the bed frame should always be in the lowest possible position when the
patient is unattended.
4. Ensure all brakes are locked.
5. Activate warmer and adjust temperature if desired.
