Flexmort CuddleCot -Infant Cooling System
The CuddleCot offers a specialized cooling solution tailored for bereavement care, catering specifically to pre-term and full-term infants. The device allows for consistent cooling without using refrigerant gases, providing families with precious extended time to create memories with their baby without concerns about temperature fluctuations. It's designed with flexible cooling pads that can be used with any cot or bassinet, ensuring a familiar environment for families within hospitals or at home. This product aims to mitigate the need for immediate transition to mortuaries by providing a dignified, portable cooling mechanism that operates quietly and is energy-efficient. The system includes cooling pads in different sizes for infants and is easy to clean, making it suitable for hospital use and transport. The CuddleCot system supports an improved grieving process by enabling parents to maintain proximity to their child in a non-intrusive manner.
The CuddleCot is used across various healthcare departments, hospices, and funeral care settings that support families experiencing loss, including but not limited to:
- Labor and Delivery
- Neonatal Intensive Care Unit
- Pediatrics
- Accident and Emergency
- Children's Hospice
It is used in large, small, and rural medical centers, ensuring families everywhere have the gift of time with their baby.
The CuddleCot gently cools both pre-term and full-term babies in a single device, without the use of refrigerant gases.
It provides continuous cooling, allowing families to hold their baby without concerns about temperature fluctuations from body heat. This extended time enables parents to take photos, create precious memories, allow extended family to travel and meet the baby, receive support, and make arrangements without feeling rushed. This level of bereavement care is deeply valued by both families and the compassionate healthcare professionals who support them.
The flexible cooling pads can be used in any existing cot or bassinet within the hospital, ensuring a discreet and familiar environment for families to spend time with their baby.
For children over the age of one who are too big for the standard baby cooling pad, the CuddleBlanket provides a suitable alternative.
Time allows families to create precious memories, enables mothers to recover from medication side effects, make arrangements without feeling rushed, and gives family members the opportunity to visit and support parents—all while keeping their baby close by.
The time provided by the CuddleCot helps in the preservation of the precious memories associated with baby, time that parents may not otherwise have if baby is taken to a mortuary.
Its impact is undeniable and it is in use in thousands of hospitals across the world. You can read parent stories here.
