Applicable Medical Conditions

The Freedom Bed™ provides essential therapeutic positioning for individuals facing a wide range of medical conditions that impact mobility and require consistent repositioning for health maintenance.

Our clinically-proven system is suitable for individuals who are tube-fed and/or on ventilators, with specialized safety features that ensure proper positioning even with constant head elevation requirements up to 30 degrees. The following conditions represent the primary diagnoses where the Freedom Bed™ has demonstrated exceptional therapeutic value over our 25+ years of service.

Individuals with spinal cord injuries resulting in quadriplegia or paraplegia require consistent repositioning to prevent pressure injuries in areas without sensation and maintain respiratory health. The Freedom Bed™ provides the automated turning these individuals cannot perform independently, with many SCI clients successfully using their beds for over 20 years while maintaining excellent skin integrity. Voice control options prove particularly valuable for those with high-level injuries, restoring independence over positioning and comfort.
As ALS progressively affects motor function, the Freedom Bed™ adapts to evolving needs, from supplementing remaining movement in early stages to providing complete repositioning support in later phases. The bed’s compatibility with ventilators and feeding tubes, combined with voice control capabilities, allows individuals to maintain positioning independence even after losing hand function, enabling them to remain at home with dignity throughout their journey.
Progressive muscle weakness from conditions like Duchenne and Becker muscular dystrophy eventually prevents individuals from repositioning themselves during sleep, leading to discomfort and serious health risks. The Freedom Bed™ provides automated rotation, ensuring restful sleep while maintaining crucial respiratory function. Young adults with muscular dystrophy particularly benefit from the independence the bed provides, enabling them to pursue education and careers without requiring overnight caregivers.
For individuals at high risk due to previous injuries, diabetes, vascular disease, or extended immobility, the Freedom Bed™ provides essential consistent repositioning for both healing and prevention. The programmable rotation ensures no tissue remains under pressure long enough for injury to develop, while precise angle control promotes healing of existing injuries. This prevention-focused approach breaks the devastating cycle of healing and re-injury that can lead to life-threatening infections.

Immobility significantly increases pneumonia risk through secretion pooling, reduced lung expansion, and weakened cough reflexes, which is particularly dangerous for those with neuromuscular conditions or recovering from surgery. The bed’s lateral rotation promotes natural drainage of respiratory secretions and improves ventilation to all lung areas, with studies showing up to 60% reduction in pneumonia incidence among immobilized individuals.

Individuals with cerebral palsy often experience muscle spasticity and positioning challenges that make comfortable sleep difficult while increasing pressure injury risk. The gentle movements of the Freedom Bed™ help manage spasticity through regular position changes that reduce muscle tension and prevent contractures. Parents report the bed transforms nighttime from distress into restful sleep, significantly improving daytime behaviour, learning, and family dynamics.

Stroke survivors with hemiplegia or hemiparesis cannot reposition their weakened or paralyzed side, creating high risk for pressure injuries and positional complications. The Freedom Bed™ provides essential support during critical recovery periods, maintaining proper alignment while preventing shoulder subluxation and other common post-stroke complications. Settings can be adjusted as recovery progresses, supporting rehabilitation goals while enabling survivors to remain at home with family.
