Types of Hospital Beds

Bed-bound patients and individuals with limited mobility find normal beds uncomfortable, for them different types of hospital beds are manufactured. Additionally, there are very many bed accessories available at HPFY, like mattress for hospital type bed and bed boards.

Manual Hospital Beds

As the name suggests, these are manually operated beds. To operate a manual medical bed, use the cranks positioned at the foot of the bed. Since they are not dependent on electrical current, they are simpler to use and the chances of motor failure are also reduced. Subsequently, they are extremely cost-efficient and easy to maintain.

 

The Humane Restraint Duramax Bedrestrains the movement in a humanely manner. It is designed to aid patient’s comfort while successfully withholding the aggressive movements of a person. Similarly, the Invacare IVC Manual Homecare Bed combines effortless positioning of the upper body and knees with the economy of manual bed height adjustment. High-impact bed end panels are stronger than fiberboard and have a better impact and are scratch resistance.

 

Manual hospital beds are best suitable for those having a caregiver to assist them. For those who do not have a caregiver for help can opt for an electrical bed.

Side Rails/Mattress Choice for Manual Hospital Beds

• Side rails are an important feature of all hospital beds and provide enhanced patient safety from risk of fall. You can customize the railings and hospital bed mattress options for your manual bed. 

• Railing options include half-length, full-length and four piece half-length railings. Half-length extends from the head area to the waist with no railing at the foot. 

• Full-length railing ensures there is no gap and extends from head to foot on either side of the bed. The four piece half-length railing involves four shorter rails on both sides with a gap around the waist area. 

• Mattress options include foam, innerspring or therapeutic support mattress, for example air-loss therapy.

Semi Electric Hospital Beds

Built with a single or dual motor, these beds offer more features than a manual bed making life easier for caregivers. Movement of the head and foot sections can be controlled electronically but for the bed height, manual and electric options are available. Semi electric hospital beds are generally larger than conventional beds, lighter than full electric beds and can still be used for heavy-duty persons, with weight capacity up to 450 lbs. Suitable for taller and larger patients.

How to Choose the Best Hospital Bed?

When buying your hospital bed there are certain factors to keep in mind. 

 

• Age of the patient: Buying a hospital bed largely depends on the age of the patient. The bed must be comfortable enough for the patient to sleep in.
• Health Condition: If the patient suffers from severe backpain or any spinal injury, it can be difficult to find a bed that does not aggravate their condition.
• Cost efficiency: When it comes to patient safety and comfort, one should not go for the cheaper options. Good quality medical beds can be expensive but they are durable and worth your money.
• Features: Medical beds have plenty of features and are considered crucial in keeping the patient comfortable and ensure sound sleep. Investing in a good quality hospital bed is always a good idea.
• Size: Keeping in mind the accurate size and shape of the medical bed is prerequisitive for purchasing the best medical beds online. You can measure your previous bed and then explore different options on HPFY and pick the best one for you.
• Mode of Operation: Whether the bed you are going to purchase will be manual, electric or semi-electric, largely depends on who will operate it- the patient or the caregiver.
