Certain diseases and even age can make people spend most of their time or all the time in bed. Good living conditions must be given to these people.

My father, who has Alzheimer disease and is already in bed, fed by my mother, with diaper and no ability to move by himself, is in an adjustable bed and has a special foam mattress.

The adjustable bed allow my mother to put him in the best position to feed him, to wash him, to sit him a little in bed. The mattress is a special one, indicated for people that spend a lot of time in bed with no ability to move. It reduces problems like muscle pain from being too long in the same position, possible wounds from constant skin contact with bed, etc..This mattress is also filled with air through an electric device. The quantity of the air inflated inside the mattress depends on the patient weight and provides high comfort.

When normal life is not possible, the best quality conditions must be provided.
