▍Care work classroom-How to use an air mattress
An air mattress enables individuals who are unable to turn over unassisted, or those who are confined to bed for a long period, to lie in such a way that their weight is evenly distributed. This prevents too much pressure being placed on certain areas resulting in pressure ulcers. It also effectively helps to relieve the burden placed on care workers.
What precautions need to be taken when using an air mattress?
•Make sure the air duct operates smoothly and is not being pressed down on. An air mattress that cannot be inflated normally loses its efficacy.
•If the air mattress air duct separates from the main body, the mattress will leak air.
•Do not allow the care recipient to get up alone to ensure he or she does not lose their balance and fall as a result of the edge of the mattress deflating.
