Blanket Cradles

Q: What is a blanket cradle used for?

A blanket cradle is used to keep bedclothes and blankets lifted away from the legs, feet, or other sensitive areas, preventing pressure, rubbing, or discomfort. It’s especially helpful for people with ulcers, burns, recent surgery, or reduced mobility.

Q: Who can benefit from using a blanket cradle?

Blanket cradles are ideal for elderly users, people with diabetes or circulatory problems, those recovering from injury or surgery, and anyone who finds the weight of bed covers uncomfortable.

Q: How does a blanket cradle fit onto a bed?

Most blanket cradles slide under the mattress at the foot or side of the bed. The raised frame then supports the bedding above the affected area. Some designs are adjustable in height or angle to suit individual needs.

Q: Can a blanket cradle be used on any type of bed?

Yes, blanket cradles are generally compatible with most standard single, double, and hospital beds. Adjustable models offer more flexibility for different bed heights and mattress types.

Q: Are blanket cradles easy to clean?

Yes. Most are made from powder-coated steel or similar wipe-clean materials, making them easy to maintain and suitable for use in care environments.

Q: Can I adjust the height of the cradle?

Many blanket cradles feature adjustable height or angle settings, allowing users to find the most comfortable and effective position for their needs.

Q: Do blanket cradles affect warmth?

Not at all. A blanket cradle keeps bedding off the skin while still allowing covers to trap warmth effectively, ensuring comfort without pressure.

Q: Where are blanket cradles typically used?

They are commonly used in homes, hospitals, and care settings to improve comfort and relieve pressure during rest or recovery.

Blanket Cradles are designed to keep bed covers and sheets lifted away from sensitive areas of the body, helping to reduce pressure, irritation, and discomfort. Ideal for individuals recovering from surgery, living with burns, ulcers, or foot conditions, these practical aids promote comfort and airflow while resting in bed.

Available in a range of adjustable and fixed designs, blanket cradles fit neatly under the mattress or at the foot of the bed, offering a simple yet effective solution for maintaining comfort, warmth, and dignity during rest or recovery.
