Laerdal Adult Bariatric Suit

Improving bariatric patient care​

Practicing safe care for bariatric patients​

Caring for bariatric patients requires additional hands-on support from healthcare providers due to the unique challenges they present. This includes safe patient handling to reduce the risk of injuries to caregivers and patients during essential tasks like repositioning, bathing, ambulation, and dressing changes. ​

The Laerdal Adult Bariatric Suit is an important tool in healthcare education, providing realistic simulations of bariatric patients' appearance and weight. Designed for use with SimMan, Nursing Anne Simulator, or a standardized patient, this suit enhances training in safe patient handling and effective communication. 

Designed for patient-centered care

The Laerdal Adult Bariatric Suit is more than just a training tool; it's a step toward more compassionate and effective bariatric care. When paired with a standardized patient, Nursing Anne Simulator, or SimMan, learners gain a comprehensive perspective on the mobility patterns and restricted movements characteristic of a bariatric patient. By understanding the physical limitations of these patients, caregivers can adopt a more respectful approach to their care. This empathy-driven approach enhances the quality of care, leading to better patient outcomes and increased satisfaction. The suit is available in light, medium, and dark skin tones and consists of a torso with arms and two separate legs constructed of foam-filled nylon.
