What’s included in the standard specification?

The standard specification can be found on the webpage HERE


Are the tub and mattress included?

Yes, the clear plastic tub and mattress are included in the standard specification.  These can also be ordered separately as spares in the future.

 

Can we use it with a warming mattress?                    

Yes.  The plastic crib also has a hole in its base to allow the connecting cable to route directly into the mattress.  This avoids the mattress cable having to be draped over the top of the crib where it can be intrusive and easily damaged.  The Croyde Aquatherm Warming mattress fits the Croyde Storage Cot perfectly and is officially approved for combined use. 

Overbed Cot Aquatherm 

How can the cot be cleaned?

The waterproof cot can be cleaned with hospital-approved wipes and chlorine-based disinfectant solutions. It is always recommended to wipe the surfaces with a fresh-water rinse after disinfection and pat the equipment dry afterwards.  

 

Is it easy to move?

Yes. The cot is supplied with four lockable castors with braking system that allow it to be moved easily, whilst also being secure when stationary. 

 

Which other hospitals are using them?

The cot is in use across 48 NHS trusts including:

Croyde Overhead Cot Trusts

What is the warranty?

12 months

 

Does the Overbed cot go underneath all hospital beds?

135mm clearance is required for the cot to be positioned under the bed.

 

Is the Aquatherm warming mattress approved for use with Croyde Overbed cots?

A comprehensive risk assessment has been carried out in accordance with the requirements of the Medical Device Regulations, and the Croyde Cots and Aquatherm warming mattress have been deemed safe and appropriate for combined use.

This approval gives you additional peace of mind re compatibility and performance and avoids you needing to do your own assessment.
