Hill-Rom VersaCare Bed User Manual

VersaCare® Bed User Manual (161956 REV 2) 13
To Activate
Head and Intermediate Siderails
WARNING:
Evaluate patients for entrapment risk according to facility protocol, and monitor
patients appropriately. Make sure that all siderails are fully latched when in the
raised position. Failure to do either of these could result in serious injury or death.
NOTE:
Siderails are intended to be a reminder to the patient of the bed's edges, not a patient-
restraining device. When appropriate, Hill-Rom recommends that medical personnel
determine the proper methods necessary to make sure a patient remains safely in bed.
The VersaCare® Bed siderails have been designed with the OneStep® Siderail Release
Mechanism for one-step operation.
Siderails in the raised position are intended to make the patient aware of the proximity of
the edge of the sleep surface and to assist in patient entry and exit.
Siderails in the down position, below the patient surface, make a patient’s entry or exit
from the bed easier. This design feature also makes it easier for the caregiver to have
unobstructed access to the patient.
