Jiadun Medical JD-YLC7-01

The JD-YLC7-01 is specified for UK settings where patients are dependent for repositioning and staff manual handling exposure limits turning frequency. In acute medical and surgical wards — where NHS England operates roughly 117,500 adult beds — powered backrest and leg positioning cover everyday semi-Fowler nursing, post-operative recovery, and respiratory support. At the same time, height adjustment sets a safe working height that reduces cumulative back loading across a shift.

In high-dependency and intensive care areas, the tilt functions carry the clinical weight. Forward and backward whole-frame tilt provide Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg for circulatory management, aspiration risk reduction and procedural positioning. Department of Health critical care design guidance identifies electric operation, Trendelenburg capability and compatibility with pressure-relieving mattresses as core expectations for beds in these units, and the JD-YLC7-01 addresses all three.

Tissue viability services will focus on the lateral pair. Powered left and right tilt supports the tilted side-lying positions used for sacral and trochanteric offloading, allowing overnight turning intervals to be maintained without recruiting extra staff to each turn. Rehabilitation and long-stay wards use the same functions for progressive mobilisation and sitting tolerance, and the low-set deck plus short-length guardrails support supervised egress work with physiotherapy colleagues.

Care homes, hospices and private hospitals regulated by the CQC use the bed for complex and palliative care where dignity during repositioning matters as much as the mechanics. Optional companion chairs and mobile dining tables extend it into longer-stay and family-present settings.

Procurement teams working through NHS Supply Chain's pressure area care and patient handling framework, or through trust and ICB routes, should note that NICE has published late-stage assessment guidance on bed frames for adult acute wards; Medigear.uk supplies the conformity documentation those exercises require.

Turning becomes a one-person task.

Powered left- and right-frame tilt changes the staffing arithmetic of repositioning. A turn that conventionally needs two or three staff plus a slide sheet can be initiated by one nurse at the control panel. Across a night shift on a dependency ward, that difference decides whether turning intervals are actually kept or quietly stretched.

Seven functions in one frame, not three products

Backrest, leg section, height, both Trendelenburg directions and both lateral directions all live in a single bed. Wards that would otherwise specify a standard profiling bed plus separate turning equipment consolidate into one asset, with one service contract, one training package and one set of spares.

One pedal, all four castors

Central braking removes the most common pre-transfer failure — a castor missed under time pressure. Staff engage or release the whole bed from a single control, shortening the safety check and reducing the repeated stooping involved in four-pedal systems.

Integrated rails, not aftermarket fittings

The four ABS guardrails are designed into the bed. MHRA incident analysis consistently shows that third-party rails retrofitted to beds they were not designed for account for most serious entrapment events. Starting from an integrated system removes an entire category of risk before the individual assessment begins.

Short rails preserve patient independence.

Two short rails per side give barrier protection at the head and hip while leaving the mid-bed section clear. Patients who can weight-bear retain a route out of bed, supporting early mobilisation and reducing the pressure to use rails as de facto restraints a distinction the CQC scrutinises closely.

Wipe-clean ABS throughout

Moulded ABS headboards, tail boards and rails present smooth, low-crevice surfaces that tolerate routine ward disinfection. Head and tail boards lift clear for emergency access and for terminal cleaning between patients, supporting infection prevention audit requirements without special consumables.

Colour coding without a bespoke order

Six guardrail colour finishes let a trust or care group code beds by bay, ward zone, dependency level or decontamination status using standard stock rather than a custom production run—VThis kind of visual coding reduces equipment misplacement acrossdepartments.

Everything the bedside needs is already fitted.

Four drainage hooks at frame level and a stainless steel infusion stand come as standard, so catheter bags, wound drains and infusion lines have designated positions from day one. Bags routed to fitted hooks rather than improvised points stay below bladder level and clear of the tilt mechanism.

Documentation supplied for procurement, not promised

Medigear.uk provides the declaration of conformity, certificate scope, applicable standards evidence and current UKCA position with the quotation. Procurement and medical physics teams verify the file before commitment rather than chasing it after delivery.

Seven-function electric drive

Back lift and lower, leg lift and lower, whole-frame forward tilt, whole-frame backwards tilt, whole-frame left tilt, whole-frame right tilt, and overall height adjustment — all powered from one medical-grade actuator set.

Backrest elevation 0–75° (±5°)

The backrest travels from flat to 75°, covering supine nursing through to a near-upright sitting position for feeding, respiratory support and patient interaction.

Leg section elevation 0–40° (±5°)

Independent leg-section articulation to 40° supports knee-break positioning, oedema management and post-operative limb elevation without disturbing backrest angle.

Whole-frame lateral tilt, left and right

Powered tilt of the complete deck in both lateral directions, providing assisted turning towards side-lying orientation for pressure offloading and hygiene access.

Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg

Forward and backwards whole-frame tilt delivers head-down and head-up positioning for circulatory management, airway protection, and procedural requirements.

Powered height adjustment

Full-deck height travel sets a safe working height for staff during care episodes and a lower height for patient egress and fall risk reduction.

Central control wheel with central braking

A single pedal-linked system locks and releases all castors together, replacing individual castor brakes and shortening the pre-transfer check.

Four ABS guardrails, two per side

Short-length moulded ABS rails, integral to the bed frame, providing barrier protection at head and hip while leaving mid-bed egress clear.

ABS bed head and tail boards

Moulded, wipe-clean head and tail boards that detach for emergency access and terminal cleaning, with smooth low-crevice profiles for infection prevention.

Deck footprint 2040 × 960 mm

An overall deck of 2040 × 960 mm at a published 480 mm height, sized for standard UK ward mattresses and high-specification foam, hybrid or alternating-air replacements.

Four frame-mounted drainage hooks

Designated hook positions for catheter and wound-drainage bags, keeping lines clear of the tilt mechanism and bags positioned below patient level.

Stainless steel infusion stand

A stainless infusion stand supplied as standard, locating into corner sockets on the frame and repositionable to the working side of the bed.

Six guardrail colour finishes

Amber, red, green, blue, purple and yellow rail inserts, selectable at order for ward-zone, bay or dependency-level colour coding.

Single-crate delivery at 2020 × 930 × 480 mm

The bed ships in one crate at approximately 0.90 m³, simplifying goods-in handling, storage before commissioning and multi-unit ward refits.

Optional bedside and companion furniture

Mattress, bedside table, dining table and chairs, companion chairs and mobile dining table are available as configured options to complete a bay or side room.

Manufacturer quality system certification

Hengshui Jiadun Medical Equipment publishes ISO 9001, ISO 14001, ISO 45001 and ISO 13485 certification alongside EU CE certification, with certificate scope confirmed at quotation.

Serviceable component architecture

Guardrails, castors and actuator assemblies are specified as replaceable items, supporting the documented annual servicing regime that MHRA guidance expects for medical beds in use.

The JD-YLC7-01 solves a specific, expensive problem: repositioning dependent patients safely, often enough, without exhausting the team doing it. Seven powered functions — backrest, leg section, height, both Trendelenburg directions and both lateral tilts — put assisted turning, pressure offloading and procedural positioning under button control on a single 2040 × 960 mm frame. Integrated short-length ABS guardrails, central braking, fitted drainage hooks and a stainless infusion stand complete a bed that arrives ready for the bay rather than ready for a shopping list. It suits acute and high-dependency wards, intensive care areas, rehabilitation and long-stay units, hospices and CQC-regulated care groups. Medigear.uk supplies the JD-YLC7-01 across the UK with conformity documentation, colour and configuration options, and service support.
