What Is An Overbed Table?

An overbed table, also known as a hospital table or bedside table, is a versatile medical device designed to be positioned over a patient's bed or wheelchair. Its primary function is to provide a stable, accessible surface for a variety of essential tasks, enhancing patient comfort, safety, and independence, particularly for individuals with limited mobility or those recovering from illness or injury. These tables are commonly found in healthcare facilities across Botswana, from hospitals and clinics to rehabilitation centres and home care settings.

The adjustable height and often tilting surface allow users to comfortably dine, read, write, engage in activities, or conveniently place medical equipment and personal items within easy reach. This strategic placement is crucial for maintaining patient dignity and facilitating care delivery.

Who Needs Overbed Table In Botswana?

In Botswana, the demand for overbed tables extends across a diverse range of healthcare facilities and departments. These versatile pieces of medical equipment are essential for providing comfort, convenience, and improved patient care in various settings. From large urban medical centers to smaller rural clinics, the need for efficient and ergonomic patient support is universal.

  • Teaching Hospitals & Tertiary Care Centers: Facilities like Princess Marina Hospital and Nyangabwe Hospital require a significant number of overbed tables in their general wards, intensive care units (ICUs), and recovery rooms. They are crucial for supporting patients during meals, medication administration, reading, writing, and providing a stable surface for medical devices and diagnostic tools.
  • District Hospitals & Referral Hospitals: For institutions such as Scottish Livingstone Hospital or Mahalapye District Hospital, overbed tables are vital in enabling nurses and caregivers to perform bedside tasks efficiently. This includes supporting IV drips, wound care supplies, and patient comfort items, especially for long-term care patients.

Overbed tables in these areas facilitate post-operative recovery, assist with feeding and personal care for mothers and newborns, and support occupational therapy activities.

In situations where patients may be admitted for observation or extended treatment, these tables offer a significant improvement in patient comfort and the ability for healthcare workers to manage care effectively.
