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.
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.
It has been almost a year since I got my Freedom Bed. The muscles in my arms and legs are very weak, and I am unable to turn myself in the bed. The bed rotates in a lateral direction, keeping me from having an attendant do this during the day and night. "The angle of rotation and the frequency of rotation can be programmed according to the needs of the patient. In spite of its functionality, the Freedom Bed is very attractive and does not look like a hospital bed. I would recommend the Freedom Bed for any patient."

"Following a massive stroke, my mother used the Freedom Bed by ProBed for 14 months before passing away from cardiac issues. She was largely bed bound during this time and the Freedom Bed worked flawlessly. While using the bed she suffered no bed or pressure sores. In fact, the only issue we had in this regard was when she was in the hospital, away from her Freedom Bed. The company is very hands-on, starting with a comprehensive, in-person instructions, and her caregivers had no problems learning how to use and operate the bed. Likewise my mother had no issues adjusting to the slow movement of the bed while she slept. The product is really only surpassed by the excellent customer service. ProBed was there for any questions, any time of the day, even in the middle of the night. Two thumbs up, or five stars as they say. The product really helped our family during a difficult period."

"I'm writing to tell you how your wonderful Freedom Bed has improved our lives. Ryan hasn't had pneumonia in 18 months and no new pressure sores. His skin is healthy and he is comfortable. His lungs are clear and he and he now has enough strength to blow out a candle. As an 11-year-old Quad with a rare disorder and multiple past surgeries, Ryan was either getting sick, or getting over being sick but his Freedom Bed changed all that. His doctors are, of course, pleased, and I must say that they are also quite impressed at the difference Ryan's bed has made in his health in the 18 months he has had it. The quality of this bed is also remarkable it hasn't needed any service or repair and is easy to operate. And I also like how it looks in his bedroom - no "Institutional Look" here! Thank you so much! We would recommend the Freedom Bed to anyone!"
