What Is a Foot Board?
A foot board is an innovative piece of equipment designed to keep a patient in a safe and stable position throughout the night. A patients feet are placed on the soft and comfortable material, as they would at the end of a standard bed, preventing them slipping down the bed as they move throughout the night.
Is the Bed Foot Board Restrictive?
A foot board is not restrictive, as it simply provides a buffer that prevents the user sliding down the bed. There are no attachments or fastenings on the user, it simply provides a soft surface to prevent sliding, keeping your posture correct and body correctly aligned.
What Does the Anti-Entrapment Footboard Do?
The foot board stops the user sliding down the bed as they sleep. Certain conditions mean a lot of movement during the night that can result in falls and roll-out. A foot board is a comfortable and safe way of ensuring a natural and safe sleeping position is maintained throughout the night.
Who Should Use One?
If you or a patient move about routinely during the night and find that this is causing muscle pain, sciatic nerve pain or other pain in the legs, then maintaining and encouraging a more static position whilst sleeping may help to alleviate some symptoms.
Which Beds Will Each Of These Foot Boards Attach Onto?
Each foot board comes in two different variations that are both available to purchase. These variants include:
- Foot board for metal bed frames (single bed)
- Foot board for divan style bed frames (single bed)
Which Bed Size Is This Foot Board Compatible With?
This footboard design is compatible with single Divan beds or single metal-frame beds.
What Material Is It Made With?
The material is a sheepskin imitation that gently and softly cushions the feet throughout the night. The material is plush and soft and is a much nicer alternative to the cold, wooden boards used in other similar products.
