Side Rails
To Fold Down:
Push button as indicated in the picture (A) to fold down. The
side rails rotate away from the center of the bed.
The side rails are designed to move with the bed as it is raised
and lowered.
WARNING: It is recommended to have the
side rails upright at all times while the patient
is in the bed. However, the ultimate decision
lies with the medical personnel who are on site
and can fully evaluate all factors.
To Remove:
Pull pin as shown in picture (B) located underneath the bed. Then pull rail outward to remove
(C). When putting the rail back onto the bed, be sure to secure it with the pull pin.
WARNING: An injury may
occur if the side rail pins are not
secured properly, or not in place,
causing harm to the patient and/or
care provider.
WARNING: If the side rails are not secured in the proper place, entrapment to
the patient may occur. Bed rail entrapment is a serious health risk that can result
in serious injury or even death. Sizewise recommends the care provider be
mindful of the FDA guidelines relevant to bed rail entrapment, as serious injury
can result. These guidelines can be found on the FDA website. It is the care
provider’s ultimate decision whether or not to use bed side rails with the patient.
Never try to move the bed by the side rail. The side rails may come loose or
break.
