Pediatric Cribs and Changing Tables


No parent ever wants to think about the possibility of their baby needing care in a hospital or medical facility but if the unexpected happens and their loved one needs medical intervention, the last thing they want to worry about is safety. Fortunately with the MJM Pedi-crib offered by Rehabmart, parents can rest easy and know their child is safe and secure.

The bottom of the crib is also fully adjustable and can be raised if head elevation is necessary. A three inch antimicrobial cushion insures the child's comfort and safety as well. Additional features include an O2 tank holder with safety straps and an optional IV pole. The crib is also available in a cheerful yellow tone.

Changing Tables

When a new baby comes, one of the first pieces of equipment that must be purchased other than a safe crib is a changing table. While the floor might do in a pinch, babies' diapers need changing an average of five times a day and therefore a more permanent solution must be decided upon. Rehabmart offers a number of different options to keep your baby safe and secure while having their little bottoms cleaned.

Constructed of sturdy steel tubing that locks securely in place when in use, this table is covered with a stain resistant, latex-free hygienic woven polyester mesh that cleans up in a snap with any household cleanser. One of the best features of this table is that it requires no tools to assemble and comes with safety rails that can be attached with simple clamps.
