ABSTRACT:
A bed assembly for preventing the occurrence of bed sores on long term patients includes a bed frame which has a structural perimeter framework. An inflatable mattress has a bottom supported on the bed frame. The mattress has a top and a mattress periphery surrounding the top. A covering overlies the top of the inflatable mattress. The covering has a covering periphery. A plurality of tensioning devices are placed about the covering periphery and connected between the covering and the structural perimeter framework for holding the covering taut and smooth over the top of the inflatable mattress, and for holding down the mattress and preventing the mattress periphery from bending upwardly when a patient lies on the inflatable mattress.
