Who Can Benefit From the Machine Washable Cotside Bumpers with Net Base?

The Thorpe Mill Machine Washable Cotside Bumpers with Net Base are designed to improve virus control and reduce infection rate in hospitals and care homes. By attaching these bumpers, carers can effectively reduce infection transfer by using the bumpers to catch droplets from coughing and sneezing.

Why Should We Use Cotside Bumpers?

A study based on the NPSA’s National Reporting and Learning System (NRLS) estimated 1,250 reports of injuries from striking or trapping limbs in bedrails are made every twelve months from hospitals and mental health units in England and Wales. The Medicines and Health Care Products Regulatory Agency (MHRA) have had reports of 21 bedrail related deaths from 2000 – 2006. Cotside bumpers have been specifically designed to reduce the number of injuries and deaths related to bedside railings entrapment. 

Why Are Cotside Bumpers Useful For Patients?

Patients in hospitals and care homes often have trouble moving around independently due to their illness, injury or condition. The Thorpe Mill Bed Bumper provides patients with a hand-hold for getting in and out of bed, as well as providing a soft barrier against rolling out of bed during sleep.
