DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE INVENTION

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a body protection care table, and more particularly to a body protection care table for use by a care-requiring person who needs medical care.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art It is extremely important for a person who is bedridden such as a physically handicapped person or a severely ill person to be able to perform daily life on a bed by himself as much as possible from the viewpoint of physical or psychological treatment. It also reduces the burden on the caregiver. 2. Description of the Related Art Conventionally, personal protective equipment for protecting a body such as a physically handicapped person or a severely ill person on a bed, and a nursing table for meals or the like have been used individually. For example, a body protection device is a metal arch type and is designed to be considerably larger than a body so that a futon or the like does not directly hit an affected part after surgery. The nursing care table used for meals and medication is fixed to a nursing care bed or used by moving a caster or the like attached to a leg and moving the nursing table close to the bed.

There is a problem.

[0005] Further, in the case of a care-requirer who is not sufficiently aware of the necessity of protecting an affected part and wearing equipment, the care-giver must pay close attention every day.
Therefore, there is a problem that the caregiver must take care of the care recipient for a long period of time in a state where he / she can take care of the caregiver all day long, increasing the burden on the life of the caregiver. In particular, the more severe the level of dementia and the more severe the physical and mental disabilities, the more difficult it is to use personal protective equipment and nursing tables, and both caregivers and caregivers are faced with inconvenient living environments. That is the current situation.

The present invention has been made to address such a problem, and an object of the present invention is to provide a body protection nursing table that is small and versatile in use together with a body protection function.
