It’s no secret that obesity has become a serious problem today. People in the United States have been gaining weight by leaps and bounds, and they often have trouble losing it. With that being the case there are critics who have no sympathy and others who believe that these people are simply victims of a problematic society. Whatever the case, though, there doesn’t seem to be any quick fix and this overweight population is getting older, putting more pressure on an already strained healthcare system. Just because there are a lot of overweight people, however, does not mean that they should be made to suffer if they become disabled. Thankfully, there are bedroom safety products designed just for them! One of these is the Invacare Manual Bariatric Bed. It can support up to 600 pounds but is easy to set up in the home. Despite the ease of setup, though, the bed is very substantial and sturdy. While the cost of the bed is near $4700, the value for the money is unsurpassed. That cost is no more than what would be paid for a high-end, full or queen size bed with mattress and box spring, and the Invacare bed is rated for much higher weights. The wider surface and truss assembly helps provide the maximum amount of support while still giving comfort, as does the extra bracing that is integrated into the bed frame itself. The bedroom safety ends are removable and the bed offers a split-spring design, which helps make the bed easier to set up. This allows a caregiver to set up this kind of bedroom safety for a bariatric patient and does not require a team of individuals or a professional installer to assemble, and there are not even any special tools needed to put the bed together.
