A bedside screen is a portable, folding partition used in healthcare settings (hospitals, clinics) to provide patients with privacy during examinations, treatments, or rest, featuring a multi-panel frame (2-4 folds) on castors, often with fabric curtains, made of durable materials like steel or stainless steel for easy cleaning and mobility. These essential tools allow staff to create temporary dividers in shared rooms, ensuring patient dignity, comfort, and separation.
