Just clean the floor and give them the mat you would put on the box. This is also a more robust and less wasteful method. They could instead make shelving and that would beore.usefull in a shelter
it’s not very clear, but i think this is without a matress, like a camping cot
it’s worth doing this because it raises the person up from the floor which if concrete drains heat quickly, or is less sanitary, and helps caregivers not bend down as much
It may seem less wasteful for someone who is rather limber, but it is not practical when some people have difficulty getting down onto or up off of the floor, particularly as we age.
having slept on a mat on the floor for ~1 year until I dislocated my spouse's shoulder throwing a cockroach off the bed in a sleepy panic, I would strongly suggest against it.
Practical (bending down is harder), sanitary (the dirt is usually on the floor), safety (connecting any medical equipment is more dangerous, administering drugs is awkward and also more dangerous), etc. It's hard to impress some people with innovation.
