Fall Prevention Mats FAQs

What are fall prevention mats?

Fall prevention mats are impact-absorbing floor mats placed beside beds or chairs to cushion falls and reduce the risk of injury for vulnerable patients or residents at high risk of falling.

Who needs crash mats in care homes?

Crash mats are recommended for residents with dementia, Parkinson's disease, poor balance, previous falls, or anyone assessed as high risk of falling from bed or standing positions.

Do fall-out mats really prevent injuries?

Yes, studies show crash mats significantly reduce fall-related injuries including fractures and head trauma by providing cushioning and impact absorption when placed correctly beside beds or chairs.

Can fall prevention mats be cleaned?

Yes, fall prevention mats have wipe-clean vinyl covers that can be cleaned with hospital-grade disinfectants, meeting infection control standards for healthcare environments.

Where should crash mats be positioned?

Position crash mats on the side of the bed where the resident typically exits, or on both sides for maximum protection. Ensure mats lie flat and cannot slip or create trip hazards.
