Product Information

When disk write caching is enabled, the data requests are stored on RAM instead of directly on the disk. This results in improved performance. But if this option is disabled, the computer has to write data directly on the disk which impacts the performance. Data loss can occur on power failure when the disk write caching is enabled. Turning off this feature can help prevent data loss, provided the device has a separate power supply. Hence, it depends on you whether you want disk write caching to be enabled or disabled. Does write caching improve performance? Many of the beds with special features are available as a double bed where one side of the bed remains as a standard bed.

Serious injuries have occurred from the use of bed rails. The prescribing, selecting, fitting and maintenance of bed rails needs considerable care to avoid injury. The Medical Devices Agency (now within the Medicines and Healthcare Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) issued a bulletin in July 2001 - Advice on the safe use of bed rails.Space and environment: Consider the available space in the environment where the lifting aid will be used. Ceiling-mounted systems, for example, require appropriate structural support. Two main sizes of roller are available: a small version (large cushion size) and a larger version (sleeping bag size). If the smaller, cushion sized roller is used, it is placed under the user’s shoulders and bottom. The larger, sleeping bag sized version is placed so that it extends from head to toe. When used for turning, the open ends of the rollers are always towards the head and foot end of the bed. The aim of this factsheet is to provide information about accessories for standard beds and beds with special features that are available to help people with specific difficulties or their carers. These difficulties may include getting in and out of bed, turning over, sitting up and generally getting comfortable in bed. Comfort and sleeping well are essential not only for the well-being of a person, but also because, for some people, they may mean the difference between being able or unable to carry out activities independently. If you are experiencing difficulty with any of the activities mentioned above, you may benefit from an assessment by a physiotherapist or occupational therapist. Sometimes a change in the way you carry out an activity or a different technique may help you to manage independently instead of using equipment. Combining a wheeled transporter with a turntable platform, these transfer aids offer an ideal solution where space is at a premium and where the client can adequately weight-bear.

An individual with impaired mobility from paralysis or limited upper body functions can use the SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disc unassisted in a very efficient way. If the patient cannot use his/her upper extremities a helper will be needed. For maximum support and safety for both the patient and the helper, we recommend that either a transfer belt or sling be used in conjunction with the SafetySure Transfer Pivot Disc. Many of the solid discs use ball bearings in the swivel mechanism, which may result in fast turning that can be difficult to control. However, this may be useful when a heavier person is moving, as their weight sometimes prohibits discs without ball bearings from turning on one another. It does not include a frail elderly person who is otherwise able-bodied or any person who is only temporarily disabled or incapacitated, such as with a broken limb.‘personal or domestic’ use means that the supply must be made available specifically for the use of an eligible individual.
