Where can I advise a family to get hold of a portable tipping bed for a child with cystic fibrosis. Our hospital model does not fold up easily and cannot readily be taken on holiday?

its not an official tipping bed, but a lot of parents use an ironing board positioned between a chair and the floor. The child lays on the board.

Hi:
Are you aware that the more recent literature with regards to tipping in CF now states that physio with tipping is no more effective than performing it without, and that it may have negative sequelae for some children? At my hospital we have ceased using tipping in our CF and bronchiectasis children.
