Arctic Turning Bed

Product Code: ARI

Developed to cater to clients with complex care needs, the Arctic Turning Bed is a fully profiling bed designed to empower users to turn themselves in bed. One of its notable features is the ability to turn while the person is sitting up, allowing for a multitude of positional changes. These changes are crucial for providing comfort, pressure relief and facilitating manual handling.

Equipped with the Autobox, the Arctic is programmable, enabling pre-set positional changes at a desired frequency. The beds height-adjustable mechanism minimises strain on carers, contributing to a higher quality of single-handed care. This multi-positional and multi-functional bed system can be customised to meet the specific needs of individuals with conditions such as muscular dystrophy, multiple sclerosis, motor neurone disease, tissue viability issues and cerebral palsy. The Arctic is available with a selection of highly sophisticated pressure-relieving mattresses.

The turning function allows for stopping at any position up to 55 degrees, where it automatically halts. In the current economic climate, where cost reductions is a priority and single-handed care is becoming more prevalent, the Arctic turning bed proves to be an essential and cost-saving piece of equipment. It not only reduces the number of carers needed for repositioning but also promotes independence.

Demonstration Video

“Every morning I would spend the first part of our day consoling him whilst rubbing his severely aching back. With his condition and age this was all part of expected daily life for us. Other parents of children living with the same condition reported this was normal – to try warm baths, heat pads and pain relief medications.

To say it was difficult was an understatement. Seeing my son in pain every morning, seeing him exhausted during the day as he never got a full night’s sleep, it’s heart-wrenching and exhausting for any parent.

Then our OT suggested we try the Arctic Centrobed – and life got better quite literally overnight!

With is quietly and gently turning him every 30 minutes my son slept through the night for the first time in…well…so long I couldn’t remember! He woke with no pain in his back, and I had my happy smiling boy back! And after I finally had a full night’s sleep too, he had a happy and refreshed mum!

He had renewed energy, His school teachers reported how much more focused and cheerful he had become, and how his work had improved as a result. He was so much happier, the change was noticeable and quite dramatic.

For us the Centrobed has been life changing. I would absolutely recommend it for anybody who has difficulty repositioning; for us the quality of life for the whole family has improved immensely – I only wish we had tried it sooner! Thank you Centrobed.”
