Powerful drive, big difference

Thanks to DewertOkin Technology Group products, nursing beds can be easily adapted to the needs of patients. This relieves the burden on staff while also helping patients.

Product

DewertOkin Technology Group drives and lifting columns play an important role in the care sector. Powerful drives can raise the whole bed to the right height, adjust the head and foot sections or tilt the entire bed along the two horizontal axes. Inclined planes make it easier to lift and reposition patients and thereby simplify day-to-day care. Products for use in the medical sector must meet particularly stringent requirements in terms of performance, user-friendliness and safety.

Application

Electric actuators allow nursing beds, sanitary facilities or care chairs to be effortlessly adapted to the needs and requirements of carers and patients or private users. They adjust the height of toilets and, if necessary, raise the seat to a height enabling the user to get off the toilet and stand up comfortably. Once largely confined to care facilities the world over, nursing beds and similar applications are now increasingly to be found in private homes as well.

Benefits

Older people often want to stay in their own homes for as long as possible. Depending on their state of health, this may only be possible with technical assistance. For example, they may need a bed whose overall height or foot or head sections can be adjusted, or the entire bed tilted. This is important for the individual concerned, who can find the optimum sleeping position, but it is just as important for carers, as it enables them to work efficiently. What is true in private homes applies all the more to furniture in hospitals or nursing and care homes. Intuitive, robust and dependable furniture that can also move increasingly heavy patients is an absolute necessity here.
