Beds
Editorial data: Milano: Portale Siva Fondazione Don Carlo Gnocchi
Abstract: How often have you looked forward to lie down on a comfortable bed at the end of a hard day? Yet in particular situations the simple thought to lie down can rise strain and worry. This can be due to the inadequacy of the bed. Several kinds of bed exist that are specifically designed for people with special needs. As already said, the comfort in use depends not only on the position of the patient on the mattress, but also on the ease of getting in and out of the bed and of moving in it. These features should be taken into account when looking for a new bed.
