The human body needs mobility. If we don’t get enough mobility in bed, our bodies will suffer disuse atrophy, or our muscles will lose their strength. As a result, we face difficulty in moving around. Likewise, lack of mobility in bed and staying immobile in bed for a long time can cause severe problems to the body. For instance, it may cause pressure ulcers, skin breaking, and painful wounds. Bed mobility can include rolling, scooting, and changing the position from sitting to lying down or vice versa. Seniors often suffer from various diseases, which in some cases limit their moving ability in bed.
Bed mobility is crucial as it prevents the mentioned problems and can strengthen the person’s muscles and help them find a reasonable basis for out-of-bed mobility. Caregivers should remember that bed mobility must include all body parts, such as hips, legs, and arms. Also, they should be careful not to endanger the person in the process. If done correctly, bed mobility can be a great help for seniors and ease their muscles pains.
