Product Information

Both domestic and hospital versions of variable posture beds are available. The domestic ones tend to be smaller with a wooden or padded headboard and generally look more homely. The hospital versions are larger, usually with a metal frame, more resilient and often have a choice of nursing functions. The Mattress Genie provides you with all the benefits of an expensive adjustable bed, without the cost! Fitting underneath a mattress, you can tilt your mattress in seconds into an upright position, ideal for sitting up reading and watching TV, or preventing acid reflux as you sleep. With just the touch of a button, you can raise the Mattress Genie by up to 66cm (26 inches), which represents an incline of 40 degrees. Which Mattresses Are Compatible?

mattress elevators usually have a hinged frame which is placed between, and strapped to, the bed base and the mattress. Depending on the model chosen, the mattress is raised by air from a powered compressor inflating an air bag enclosed in the frame, or by a hydraulic piston attached to the frame; bed rails should never be used to restrain a person who may attempt to climb over them. They risk falling from a greater height; The Harley Mattress Lifter is designed to fit under the bottom or top of your mattress. The full dimensions include:

The gentle slope of the mattress wedge minimise sleep disruption whilst giving significant relief from many conditions including: Lifting poles (or pull handles) are designed to make moving around, moving into semi-lying positions or getting in and out of bed easier. The majority have a floor standing cantilever gantry, although some are wall- or bed-attached. If freestanding, care should be taken to ensure that the base is positioned properly under the bed, otherwise the gantry frame may tip over. A handle hangs from the gantry and, when adjusted to a suitable height, some people with enough strength can pull on it safely. The user does need to have fairly strong upper limbs and good abdominal control. While the Mattress Genie will make some noise while it is inflated due to the pump, this noise stops once it is fully inflated. This will allow you to get a good night's sleep without being disturbed by noise. Can the Mattress Genie be Used Directly Under a Pillow? A handling belt worn by the person can make it easier for a carer to help guide him/her around in a semi-standing position or across the board.

a moulded handgrip may be more comfortable to hold and an adjustable length strap provides greater flexibility; The Harley Mattress Lifter features a foam construction that does not require any inflation.

Alternatively, if you use the Mattress Lifter underneath the foot of your bed you can help to improve the conditions associated with a different range of problems. Raising your legs can increase circulation quality which reduces the chance of oedema and varicose veins, while allowing your calves and feet to rest. Finally, keeping your legs raised is ideal when undertaking recovery from an injury, as this can increase blood circulation and reduce pain. Is the Harley Mattress Lifter Supplied with a Cover? Heartburn, Acid Reflux, GERD, GORD, LPR and similar medical conditions all result from acid seeping upwards during sleep when laying flat. When sleeping slightly tilted gravity helps stop this occurrence and reduces associated discomfort and sleep disruption. If a person is unable to take any of their weight through their legs, advice should ALWAYS be sought from a therapist as to the safest method of assisting or moving them out of bed. Most people are not strong enough to lift someone (including many children) from the bed onto a chair/wheelchair/commode. Equipment which will do the lifting instead is available or sometimes the person may be able to slide across.These are made up of two circular discs that rotate against one another. They are useful for someone who can semi-stand or who can use a board as a bridge (but finds it difficult to turn, step or adjust his/her feet) to transfer directly from bed to chair. Users place their feet on the disc and, as the transfer is made, the disc swivels. However, a unique model is available which serves as a safety rail, can be used independently and also helps raise the person’s legs. An air filled platform first moves through 90° to bring the platform to the horizontal, lifting his/her legs. The user then moves the legs across into bed. The platform can be raised a further 90° to form a barrier to prevent him/her falling out of bed.
