Bed Loops / In-Bed Systems
Patients who struggle to turn in bed can use these Bed Loops to securely reposition themselves and safely move to the edge of the bed.
Hospital Direct’s Bed Loops give patients the independence that they need to reposition themselves and move into a safe sitting position on the edge of a bed. The fantastic webbing product changes lives for the better by promoting safety and helping patients to feel more secure.
The bed aids are the brainchild of an expert manual handling advisor who wanted to give her patients something to hold onto to help them turn in bed, or just feel more secure on the edge of the bed. She designed the Bed Loops to simply loop through the bed frame for easy use. With the bed aid to grip onto, users feel more secure as they sit up and turn from side to side.
The aids are ideal for beds with frames but are not suitable for divan beds as they loop through the bed frame. The webbing product is easy to attach with no knots or ties – simply thread the larger loop through the small one.
The Bed Loops are easy to wash in the washing machine at 30–74°C. Alternatively, wash in soapy water, rinse and drip dry.
Each comes as a paired set with a choice of three handles.

“We now have the bed loops as standard on our Community Equipment catalogue, they are great, the therapy staff like them for supporting bed mobility etc, and they are potentially reducing the amount of bed levers we are issuing” (Jenni Ray – Clinical Advisor)
