Adapt Care Launches the Safe Sleeper at the Birmingham NEC Care Show

Birmingham, UK – October 2025 – Adapt Care, a family-founded healthcare innovation company, is proud to announce the official launch of its pioneering product, the Safe Sleeper, at the Birmingham NEC Care Show.

Born out of personal experience and frustration at the lack of safe solutions for vulnerable loved ones, the Safe Sleeper represents a new era of dignity, safety, and independence in care.

A Problem That Can’t Be Ignored

Falls are one of the greatest challenges in modern healthcare.

  • Falling out of bed is the second leading cause of unintentional death among people aged 60 and above.
  • The NHS spends over £2.3 billion every year treating falls, the equivalent of more than £6 million per day.
  • In hospitals alone, an estimated 250,000 patients fall each year, costing around £2,600 per patient.

Families and care providers often face a painful dilemma: how to keep loved ones safe at night without using restrictive restraints or round-the-clock surveillance. The Safe Sleeper provides an affordable, compassionate answer

The Safe Sleeper: Safety with Dignity

The Safe Sleeper is a revolutionary bed-rail accessory that prevents individuals from falling out of bed while preserving comfort, dignity, and independence.

  • Simple, effective design – fits seamlessly over bed rails, easy to install and use.
  • For families – reassurance that loved ones are safe without costly 24/7 care.
  • For care homes & hospitals – reduces staff pressures, prevents avoidable injuries, and promotes independence.
  • For people with disabilities – supports young people and adults needing extra security without limiting mobility.

Unlike restraints, the Safe Sleeper allows free movement within safe boundaries, empowering residents and reducing carer strain.

Why the Care Sector Needs Change

The care sector is facing unprecedented pressures:

  • Over 6,000 elderly people remain on home-care waiting lists.
  • Thousands of carer roles remain unfilled, leaving families without vital support.
  • With an average of one nurse per seven patients, staff shortages are at crisis levels.

By reducing falls, preventing unnecessary hospital admissions, and cutting costs, the Safe Sleeper offers relief to families, providers, and the NHS.

More Than a Product – A Purpose

Adapt Care was founded after the family of its creators experienced firsthand the devastating consequences of inadequate safety in care. Their grandmother’s dementia deteriorated due to repeated falls and hospital-acquired infections.

This personal journey fuels Adapt Care’s mission:

  • To deliver safer, more affordable alternatives to traditional care.
  • To ensure dignity, independence, and fulfilment are at the heart of every care experience.
  • To close the funding gap and make quality care accessible to all.

“We believe that everyone should have access to the best care possible and the right to feel safe.” – Adapt Care

Looking Ahead

The Safe Sleeper is made from high-quality, ethically produced materials, with a two-year guarantee and low carbon emissions in production. It is not just a product, but a movement towards safer, more dignified care.

The launch at the Birmingham NEC Care Show marks just the beginning. Adapt Care is committed to working with the NHS, care homes, and distributors across the UK and globally, with the ambition of making the Safe Sleeper a household name – a standard in safety and care.
