Installing the endboards
Headboard
The headboard is fitted with fins that must point towards the sleep surface. If the
headboard is installed in the bed frame the wrong way round, the risk of
entrapment increases.
If the head endboard is removed from the bed frame, the risk of patient
entrapment or falling increases. Similarly, the use of the accessories installed at
the head of the bed (e.g., IV poles, helpers, etc.) can incur risks for the patient.
The headboard can be removed for easier access to the patient’s head.
