A safety bed is a soft, flexible, sleep and relaxation space. It is often used for sleep, sensory or play and is suitable for homes, schools, hospitals, care and residential settings.
The innovative, Safespaces Safety Bed is designed to be safe, strong and durable for adults and children with special needs. It significantly reduces the risk of injury from hard surfaces and provides a calming, low stimulation environment which can easily be transformed into a sensory space.
Safespaces offers a range of innovative products designed to improve safety and provide a sensory-friendly environment. Our specialist product range delivers three key outcomes designed to improve quality of life for the user.
- Improves Sleep – creating a cocooning, calming effect directly reduces wandering and disruptions to the household and gives the user a peaceful bedtime experience and a full night’s sleep
- Meets Sensory Needs – this element involves providing the user with the sensory stimulation that they need and enjoy, and it can mean using fiber optics, play shapes or projections to enhance the user experience
- Supports Behavior – the ideal place to support emotional regulation and de-escalate in a safe ‘personal’ space fosters a learning journey towards improved self-management in a defined and comfortable area
The ‘Lifechanging’ impact on Sleep
It is estimated between 50 per cent and 80 per cent of autistic children experience chronic sleep problems, such as taking a long time to fall asleep, frequent night waking and very early rising.
These issues often result in significant sleep deprivation for parents and caregivers, high levels of stress, and a marked reduction in quality of life for the whole family.
Safespaces safety beds can be ‘life changing’ for a wide range of different people and have benefited many including:
- people with sensory processing needs or/and autism
- users with physical disabilities or mobility challenges
- individuals with complex behavioral or medical conditions
- people living with chronic medical conditions
- caregivers and families seeking peace of mind and improved rest
Customers tell us that their new Safespaces bed is ‘incredible’ and ‘the favorite thing they own’, with one family telling us that their daughter was asking for ‘zip up’ by the second night and that on the second night using it, her mother explained to us that her child had in fact ‘slept through – which I can count on one hand in nine years!’
