Life-changing Theraposture adjustable cots and beds a hit with parents and children living with disability at Kidz Scotland

-
Designed to assist adults and children with disabilities, we showcased our popular and affordable adjustable care cots and beds at 'Kidz to Adultz Scotland'. (Royal Highland Exhibition Centre, Edinburgh).
The in-built precision German engineering in every Theraposture cot and bed provides quiet and smooth variable height adjustment, profiling, or variable height and profiling. This helps both parents and carers attend to a disabled child at a safe working height and therefore reduces the risk of muscle or back injury. Safe and strong cot and bed sides, high quality safety padding and innovative locking devices all ensure children with challenging behavior can be protected from injury and enjoy greater comfort and reassurance.

To demonstrate the vast range of solutions available from Theraposture, this highly regarded specialist demonstrated a variety of product examples at Kidz Scotland including a bespoke wide Hannah cot with padding, a ‘future proof’ 90cm high Mascot cot and a Theracare Low 3-bar adjustable bed.
The Theraposture Trusted Assessors were busy throughout the show discussing individual bed needs on a one-to- one basis. They spoke to a variety of visitors including Occupational Therapists, Physiotherapists and families who were all able to discover how Theraposture can offer high quality products with the best service, all at an affordable price.

THERACARE LOW BED

One particular family spent a considerable amount of time on the stand as the mother was a wheelchair user and was very impressed with the Theracare Low bed. Not only does this variable height bed suit disabled children, it is the ideal solution for disabled parents.

In this video you will see the Theracare Leg Lifter : a cost-effective way to get legs into bed – independently and safely. The Theracare Leg Lifter from Theraposture has been designed to enable users to safely and easily get their legs into bed. This simple daily task can prove difficult or even impossible for many people who may have lost muscle tone and therefore strength and general mobility. The Leg Lifter is compatible with most types of bed whether they are non-adjustable or adjustable. It will comfortably lift legs up, over and onto the sleeping surface, requiring very little movement or repositioning. This Theraposture solution is unlike alternative leg lifters that simply lift the legs beside the bed, which is the key difference that distinguishes the Theracare Leg Lifter from many alternative devices available. The motor is quiet and strong enough to lift severely oedemic (swollen) legs. Reduce carer intervention, maximise independence and eliminate care costs with
