SleepSafe Beds® takes pride in providing safe, quality solutions for our customers.
In 2000, we began developing a bed in our garage workshop in Central New York State at a request from the Office for People with Developmental Disabilities (OPWDD). They required a bed that would help prevent falls and entrapment for individuals, typically pediatric patients, in need of complex care.
Our background was producing high quality, custom furniture. This challenge of creating a “safety bed” was interesting, and we could offer a unique perspective. With help from health care professionals and caregivers, we set out to create a bed that would be safe, functional, and visually appealing. Eventually our “SleepSafe Bed” was approved by the OPWDD and now represents a new standard for the agency’s bed safety guidelines.
In 2001, a newly formed SleepSafe Beds, LLC, filed for a patent on the SleepSafe Bed® safety rail system, which was approved in 2002. The company relocated to Virginia in 2006 and moved again in 2012 to its current 110,000 square foot manufacturing plant in Bassett, Virginia.
We offer four models and seven foundations with varying safety rail heights, transfer heights, accessories and bed finishes, letting our customers select from over 30,000 safety bed combinations.
With continuing input from caregivers and health care professionals, we look forward to creating durable medical equipment to make life safer for those in need of complex care.
