Product Details
What is the Bed Wedge by Pelican?
The Bed Wedge by Pelican is a very useful triangular foam wedge that reduces the risk of rolling or falling out of the bed. This device is the perfect alternative for bedside rails. The removable wedges have a washable cover and are suitable for any type of single bed.
Who benefits from a bed wedge?
Made to provide support for patients in bed, the Bed Wedge by Pelican is ideal for those taking extended bed rest, especially if they have difficulty moving in bed on their own. The wedge can be used to prop them in a comfortable position and alleviate any points of pressure. F.i. between the patient’s legs.
Can you clean the bed wedge?
Yes. The bed wedge is made from a non-permeable waterproof material cover that can be wiped clean. This means you can keep the wedge fresh, clean and hygienic at any time.
Where can you use this bed wedge?
Offering security and comfort, our bed wedge can improve patient comfort in virtually any care setting. It can be used in:
- Home care
- Nursing homes or aged care homes
- Hospitals
- Hospices
How to use the bed wedge by Pelican?
There is a wide flap along one edge which can be folded under. The advantage of this flap is to allow air to move slightly when someone is lying on it. This means that it doesn’t feel like lying on a balloon.
This product is available in two options: with or without Hook Tape on the bottom. Hook tape can be attached to a sleep-positioning bed if used.
How can you use the bed wedges?
- As a Bed Back Support: When sitting up in bed, the Bed Wedge can be placed behind the person’s back. This provides good support for the lower back/posterior to lean against. A normal pillow can also be used for upper back support.
- As a Bed Anti-Slide Wedge: When the person is sitting up in bed, place the Bed Wedge under the legs hard up against the groin. The Wedge will comfortably help the person to stay in position sitting up and help prevent them sliding back down the bed. This is particularly useful as it can save the Carers having to constantly lift patients back into position.
- As a Bed Anti-Roll Wedge: This may help people who need to sleep on their side but will roll onto their backs. Place the wedge against their back. This will be comfortable and will prevent them from rolling onto their back. The Bed Wedge is very stable and small enough to go under the bedclothes.
- As a Bed Cradle Wedge: To take the weight of the blankets off the person’s feet, place the Bed Wedge at the bottom of the bed, under the covers.
Features of the wedge pillow:
- Supportive bed wedge for patient positioning
- Offers two different angles for comfort
- Anti-slip properties enhance patient security
- Durable design is sure to last through multiple uses
- The foam material is super easy to clean
Dimensions:
