Personal Bed Box

In-house design

Rui Medeiros Santos, NL

honourable mention
With the foldable Personal Bed Box, patients can take personal belongings such as hearing aids, glasses or dentures with them until their surgery. This relieves stress before and ensures immediate access to their belongings after the operation. The box can simply be attached to the bed frame. Patients can write their name on it to avoid loss.

Statement by the jury

»A surgical procedure inevitably entails emotional stress for the patient. This easy solution can help patients to be more comfortable entering the unfamiliar situation. «
