     The Soma Safe Enclosure (collapsible frame with a netted canopy which fits over most standard hospital beds) and the Soma Safe Enclosure Bed, which is an enclosed bed system secured with a netted canopy, provide a safe, patient friendly, easy to use, clinically proven and cost-effective alternative to caring for a patient that is subject to falling, wandering, confusion, delirium, aggression or seizures. Typically these are patients that have Alzheimer’s, dementia, Huntington’s, Cerebral Palsy, Rhett’s Syndrome, Parkinson’s, Strokes and Traumatic Brain Injuries. Zippers sewn into the canopy provide access to the patient on all four sides. By creating a more secure, manageable environment, similar to a child’s crib, the patient becomes much less disturbed. Freeing the patient from other forms of restraints, such as tie downs, vests and drugs enables them to vent their restlessness with little or no danger of inflicting injury on themselves or others. This is a product that is used in medical centers; hospitals, rehabilitation units, nursing homes, assisted living and home care settings.

THE SOMA SAFE ENCLOSURE & BED FOR HOME CARE

Safe
Enclosure

 Are you responsible for caring for a
 spouse or family member that
 suffers from Alzheimer's, a
 Traumatic Brain Injury,
 Huntington's, Stroke, Rhett's
 Syndrome or other cognitive or
 neurological disorder?
      Is your family member in an
 expensive long-term care facility
 because you are unable to care for
 them at home?
      Are you looking for a way to care for your loved one at home?

Security...

instilling peace of mind in the caregiver

 

Vivax can help you with the Soma Safe Enclosure!    
     A neurologically or cognitively impaired person requires almost constant attention.  They may fall, injure themselves trying to perform ordinary functions, attempt things they are incapable of performing safely and most dangerous of all, wander away.  This puts the home caregiver in the impossible position of trying to supervise them 24 hours a day.
     The Soma Safe Enclosure is the tool you need to address these difficult patient care issues.  During the periods when you can not be attentive to your loved one, such as during sleep and bathing, the Soma Safe Enclosure will provide a safe and secure environment that will protect your loved one from injury or harm.


Vivax Medical is committed to improving the patient's well being while lowering the cost of their care.      We support this commitment with products that provide safe, cost effective and convenient alternatives to conventional patient care.
     The Soma Safe Enclosure product line provides a superior alternative to traditional restraints and the cost of long term care facilities.
     By using the Soma Safe Enclosure, you are providing a more natural and relaxed home care environment for the patient.  Most medical studies have shown that patients' recovery and quality of life are better when they are in familiar surroundings.

Distinguishing Features of the
Soma Safe Enclosure:


The canopy is constructed of a soft
    medical grade anti-bacterial nylon that
    prevents the patient from injury while
    still being strong enough to provide
    safety.

The netting is sized to prevent the
    patient from putting their fingers
    through it.

The netting is black in color to improve
    visibility and prevent stains.

The frame is completely padded for
    patient safety.

The canopy can be laundered in a
    washing machine or hand wiped clean.

Strong locking nylon zippers prevent
    opening from the inside.

There are access ports for IV lines and
    catheters.

The canopy fits tight to the mattress to
    prevent patient entrapment.

The Soma Safe Enclosure can be used
    with or without a headboard and
    footboard.

Models are available with or without a
    bed.

THE SOMA SAFE ENCLOSURE & BED FOR INSTITUTIONAL CARE
 

Safe
Enclosure

     Are you looking for a more clinically effective way of managing patients that are agitated, distraught, excited, having seizures, delirious or otherwise cognitively impaired?
     Are the costs of lengthened patient stays, sitters, false alarms and patient injuries associated with these patients diminishing your capability to provide affordable health care?
     Then you should consider using the Soma Safe Enclosure from Vivax Medical!
     In most cases, the Soma Safe Enclosure is a superior alternative to medications, four point restraints, vests, sitters, bed alarms and isolation in dealing with the behaviorally challenging patient.

 Security...
 
  instilling peace
   of mind in the
   caregiver

Vivax is committed to bringing clinically superior products to market that improve patient care and help you lower the cost of healthcare!
     As a healthcare practitioner your primary concern is for the well being of the patient.  However, you also have to be concerned with the cost of providing your healthcare services because low levels of reimbursement may not cover your costs and compromise your ability to provide adequate care for all.
     The Soma Safe Enclosure product line provides a safe, humane and relaxed environment for the behaviorally challenging patient that otherwise would require an intervention of restraint.  It:
Allows freedom of movement,
Avoids patient injuries,
Permits the patient to interact with
     their environment, and
Promotes security and well being.

More traditional restraint methods are less desirable:
Medications can further disorient
    
patients, create complications of their
     own and retard recovery.
Four point restraints and vests further
     agitate the patient and cause injury
     and even death in extreme situations.
Sitters are very expensive and risk
     injury to themselves and the patient.
Bed Alarms suffer from too many false
     alarms, and
Isolation can further retard patient
     recovery.
