Safety Bed Features
Improve Sleep Patterns
Many children and adults with autism and complex needs experience disrupted sleep patterns. The Safespace® safety bed provides a calm, enclosed, low-sensory sleeping environment that helps minimise external stimulation and supports longer, more restful sleep. By improving night-time safety and reducing anxiety, many families report better sleep for both the individual and their caregivers.
Meet Sensory Needs
For individuals who seek out sensory stimulation, the Safespace® provides the perfect sensory retreat. A wide range of sensory equipment can be used including fibre optics, projections and play shapes to transform the Safespace®.
Support Behavior
Self-management
A Safespace provides a private space in which an individual can retreat when feeling stressed, allowing time to de-escalate in a safe environment. This personal space can support the development of behavior self-management.
How can the Safespace® be customised to meet complex needs?
Safespaces are available in a range of sizes from a single bed up to 2.5m x 2.5m. All Safespaces have a height of 210cm.
A minimum clearance of 25cm is required from the product walls to any hard surface at all times.
