The <strong>Hill</strong>-<strong>Rom</strong>® <strong>Total</strong><strong>Care</strong>® <strong>Bariatric</strong> <strong>Plus</strong> Bed


Are you ready?<br />

According to the World Health Organization’s latest obesity and overweight fact sheet,<br />

of 1.5 billion overweight adults, 20 and older, 500 million are classified as obese. 1<br />

Healthcare providers must be ready today to provide care for patients at any weight.<br />

With unmatched versatility designed to keep patients of all sizes comfortable<br />

and confident, the <strong>Total</strong><strong>Care</strong>® <strong>Bariatric</strong> <strong>Plus</strong> Bed helps you be ready for every patient<br />

and every need.<br />

Safe Skin at any level of acuity<br />

Due to their size and relative immobility,<br />

bariatric patients are susceptible to skin<br />

breakdown. As a result, it is important<br />

that their overall care prevents, treats and<br />

provides protection against pressure<br />

ulcers.<br />

eaSe of uSe at every point of care<br />

<strong>Bariatric</strong> patients have unique medical<br />

needs that can make your routine more<br />

challenging. By using products that<br />

allow you to do more on your own,<br />

you have the flexibility to give patients<br />

the treatment they need — whenever<br />

they need it.<br />

eaSy patient handling at any Size<br />

Because they require extra assistance,<br />

mobilizing bariatric patients can draw<br />

even more attention to their size.<br />

Providing care without compromising<br />

their comfort or dignity requires<br />

products that give them the confidence<br />

they need to get moving on their own.<br />

<strong>Total</strong><strong>Care</strong>® <strong>Bariatric</strong> <strong>Plus</strong> Bed’s<br />

attractive design delivers<br />

personalized care while<br />

maintaining patient dignity.


Safe skin at any level of acuity<br />

Keeping bariatric patients skin healthy throughout their recovery is one of your highest priorities. Be ready to achieve<br />

your goals and go beyond standard care with surfaces that address pressure, shear, friction and moisture — the four main<br />

causes of pressure ulcers.<br />

prevent<br />

FlexAfoot retractable foot mechanism<br />

makes it easy for you to adjust the overall<br />

length of the bed according to a patient’s<br />

height — preventing patients from sliding<br />

down in bed and minimizing the need<br />

for repositioning.<br />

Ease of use at every point of care<br />

Whether you’re transporting patients or performing routine<br />

care, doing your job efficiently while also comfortably<br />

supporting your patient isn’t easy.<br />

Be ready to do more on your own with a range of features that<br />

help you turn, transport and reposition patients with a touch<br />

of a button — every step of the way.<br />

+ IntelliDrive® Powered Transport allows a single caregiver to<br />

easily transport a patient in bed<br />

+ Turn Assist allows you to turn a patient on your own, making<br />

it easier to perform linen changes or other routine tasks<br />

+ A large, colorful touch screen offers control for functionality<br />

such as bed exit, integrated scale or head-of-bed alarms —<br />

all at a touch of a button<br />

The pressure redistribution surface<br />

automatically adjusts to a patient’s weight,<br />

and prevent pressure ulcers.<br />

Getting your patients moving and independent is one of the most challenging tasks you face. Be ready with patient lifts and a<br />

portfolio of bariatric accessories that work together to provide your patients with the support they need to confidently progress<br />

from lying in bed to sitting upright to standing up.<br />
