1. Overview of Semi-Fowler Bed with ABS Panel (Without Wheel)

Reduced risk of aspiration during feeding

Better comfort for post-surgical or bedridden patients

Enhanced circulation and reduced swelling in lower limbs
Unlike beds with wheels, this bed ensures secure, fixed placement, making it stable for rooms with limited movement space or where bed relocation is minimal.
