Bedroom

Assistance and comfort

In addition to specific aids for the bathroom, toilet and kitchen, there are also aids intended for the bedroom to assist people with reduced mobility. Products ensuring a little extra comfort are also available.

Dressing aids

If there are problems with bending over due to obesity, pregnancy or back problems, a little help when getting dressed can be useful. For putting on socks, the Able2 Sock Stocking Aid and the Able2 Sock Assist are very handy. A dressing stick is a very useful tool for people with reduced mobility. An example is the Able2 Dressing Stick.

Getting in and out of bed easily

To make getting in and out of bed easier, special side rails and bed supports have been developed. A side rail, such as the Able2 Adjustable Bed Rail, also ensures that people do not fall out of bed. A lifting pole allows people to pull themselves up to sit upright or to move, for example, to the edge of the bed to get out.

Another way to make getting in and out of bed easier is by using risers. Risers can be placed under the bed legs so that the bed can be raised to the desired height. This makes it easier for the user to sit on the bed from a standing position. Risers can also be placed under the legs of tables and chairs.

Extra comfort in bed

Overbed tables are ideal solution to avoid a cluttered bed. An overbed table consists of a small tray and is primarily intended to prop up a book. The table’s tilting function makes it possible to read from a lying position. But the platform can also be used for small items such as a phone, glasses or a glass of water. In this way, everything is within reach and the slightly raised edge means there is little chance of things sliding off.

An electric blanket also provides extra comfort in bed. The blanket emits a large amount of heat, so that the user will quickly feel warm in bed. PhysioSupplies features four different electric blankets in its range: the Able2 Warming Underblanket, the Warming Underblanket with Sleep Modus, the Able2 Warming Underblanket with 3 heat zones and the Able2 Carbon Warming Underbed. The heat blankets vary in terms of the heat regulation and the time after which the blanket automatically switches off.
