Almost one third of people aged
65 and above, as well as 50%
of those aged 80 and above fall
at least once a year.
In Germany alone, there are
about 5 million cases of
elderly people falling each year.

Safety and comfort in perfection
sentida – universal low nursing beds
Falling is one of the greatest risks for the physical health and psychological well-being of
elderly people. For this reason, systematic fall prevention is of crucial importance in care
for the elderly, making it an important quality feature of a nursing home. The consequences
of falls are often very serious for elderly people and, in the worst case, even irreversible.
he fear of further falls is one of the most common psychological consequences, leading
to limited physical activity, a loss of self-confidence and social isolation.
With the sentida range of low nursing beds, wissner-bosserhoff has achieved a consequent
and above all uncompromising implementation of the requirements of modern nursing care:
High safety standards hand in hand with a cozy design.
Innovative solutions such as the 3-stop strategy and the patented SafeFree® side guard
concept reduce falls as well as the consequences associated with them and set standards
in terms of safety, mobility, height adjustability and coziness.

Nature as an example for the choice of materials and colors. As harmoniously coordinated as a bird’s plumage – this is how
a comfortably furnished room was created which provides residents with security and protection. From the window seat you can hear
the morning birdsong. This concept is just a suggestion – we will happily give you individual advice.

More and more people choosing to forgo retiring to a quiet cottage in the country and are instead choosing to spend their time
in the city surrounded by life and culture. Retiring in the city is not about relaxing in tranquillity after years of hard work but about
making the most of new found freedom, experiencing new things, forging new friendships and re-discovering yourself in the heart
of the ever changing urban landscape. This is just a suggestion – we will happily give you individual advice.

Lowered, the divided side guards look
homely and provide unhindered access
to the resident for daily routine nursing
tasks. No need to take off and store
accessories that are in the way, such
as a middle post or fixed side guards.
Protection and mobility without FDM*
SafeFree® the patented side guard concept
For safety at night, it is often sufficient to
combine the low position of the bed with
the first height level of the head-end side
guard. This avoids unnecessary barriers
and effectively reduces the risk of falls.
Creates a deliberate bed egress gap at
the foot end to reduce freedom-depriving
measures (FDM) while at the same time
maintaining a high safety standard.
The SafeFree® divided side guard system is patented and voluntarily certified. The technology has been tested
in practice more than 1,000,000 times. You can lower the space-saving side guards quickly in only 2 seconds
and individually adjust them to four heights, depending on the care situation and size of the resident. Obtaining
freedom instead of taking it away, in agreement with the Werdenfelser Weg (Werdenfelser care pathway)**.
No protection needed
Soft protection (no FDM*)
¾ protection (no FDM*)
• Flexible use of the bed for standard care, even in limited spaces
• Flexible access from both sides of the bed in case of increased need for care
• Flexible use of the bed for bed egress on the left or right side to mobilize the resident
• Avoiding follow-up costs for upgrading divided side guards
All-round access for nursing tasks =
with 4 divided side guards
More safety due to smaller
central gap* < 60 mm
• Targeted compliance with the standard IEC 60601-2-52
• Safety in working position, i.e. also with raised backrest
or leg rest
• Safety without using an additional central gap protector
as accessory for restraint with an abdominal belt in accordance
with the BfArM** (German Federal Institute for Drugs and
Medical Devices)

The highest position provides comprehensive
protection of the resident. The distance
between the two parts of the side guards
is minimal, making them just as safe as
a continuous side guard and exceeding
the requirements of the standard IEC
60601-2-52. It is not necessary to stock up
on accessories to close a central gap when
using an abdominal belt for restraint.
Full protection (FDM*)
for mattresses up to 18 cm
If you use a thicker mattress,
you can raise the side guards
by an additional 6 cm.

Safe mobilization
regardless of body size
Divided side guards are very useful for effective mobilization, as they are easy to grab and clasp.
They can be used as a safe standing-up aid and verifiably support the resident’s mobility.

Patient surfaces – ergonomics & modularity
The so-called double retraction has been
a component of the wissner-bosserhoff
patient surfaces for years. Here, not only
the backrest but also the leg rest is moved
away from the seat section, so that the
surface area is increased.
Results of pressure measurements clearly
show that the pressure load with the double
retraction is considerably lower than with
a standard lying surface.
