The Invacare Soft Tilt automatically repositioned patients, while also helping care staff with daily moving and handling processes. The Soft Tilt is an excellent innovative system designed by Invacare. It can be easily installed on to the popular Invacare SB 755 mattress platform and will work in conjunction with existing profile movements and mattress beds. Soft Tilt is equipped with an automated pressure relief; this can be programmed to turn patients at various angles throughout the night automatically. This feature works to relieve pressure and also prevents the development of pressure ulcers. When operating automatically, the wings will never elevate higher than 30° to ensure optimal safety and comfort while the patient is sleeping.
The Soft Tilt is also built to be operated manually by a carer. This makes it perfect for moving and handling within single carer working environments. It also features an easy to use hand control, which allows the carer to elevate the wings to up to 60°, giving full access for sling application, glide sheets, and personal care. The Soft Tilt (when used in conjunction with the beds profiling movements) allows the carer to move the patient in and out of bed into a standing position effortlessly. This protects the carer from a potential back injury.
