Bariatric Bob™ – Realistic Bariatric Patient Training Manikin
Meet Bariatric Bob™, the next evolution in realistic training manikins. Designed to replicate the body shape, size, and movement challenges of a bariatric hospital patient, Bariatric Bob weighs in at over 300 lbs and features a pear-shaped body for lifelike mass and realism. Ideal for rescue training, EMS simulations, and patient handling exercises, this manikin is purpose-built to improve confidence and competency when working with overweight or mobility-impaired individuals.
Built to Withstand & Designed to Challenge
Whether filled with sand or steel shot, Bariatric Bob is constructed with durable internal compartments secured by heavy-duty polypropylene webbing to maintain realistic weight distribution. A reinforced nylon/fabric outer layer simulates patient clothing, and the body structure is crafted to replicate the unique mobility and carry challenges associated with larger patients.
Realistic Weight, Realistic Feel
From patient lifts and drags to stair carries and hospital transport, Bariatric Bob moves like a real person. The anatomically distributed weight mimics the bulk and imbalance of a bariatric patient, providing trainees with invaluable experience in body mechanics, teamwork, and safety.
Training Ready—Rain or Shine
Water-resistant and easy to clean, Bariatric Bob is ready for indoor and outdoor training in any condition. Whether your team is practicing in the field or in a clinical environment, this manikin stands up to repeated use, even from 2-3 story drops.
