All contemporary hospital beds are versatile, and patients can adapt them to their changing needs. What separates the different types of hospital beds is what powers their functions. There are three types of hospital beds: manual, semi-electric, and fully-electric.
These beds use hand cranks to adjust the bed’s height and raise and lower the head and the foot. The patient or caregiver must be physically capable of operating the crank, diminishing this kind of bed’s usability and, as such, the patient’s independence and comfort.
An electric motor raises and lowers the head and foot parts of the bed. Adjusting the bed’s height is done physically with a hand crank by the patient or caregiver.
The patient can control the height and position of the bed with a pendant or remote. It does not require a hand crank, making it easier to get in and out of bed or raise the bed to a comfortable height so that the caregiver can tend to the patient or change their sheets. Some models can also move into more positions.
Hospital models are much more suitable for the comfort needs of patients in recovery than ordinary beds. However, not everyone who would benefit from a care bed has the same comfort needs, which is why you can adjust the bed and its features to suit your particular requirements.
One advantage hospital beds have over ordinary home beds is that they can adjust their height, as well as the head and the foot of the bed. Many patients who are awake in bed prefer to elevate their head, feet, and knees for therapeutic reasons and comfort. When sleeping, many patients require a flat, level surface to get the rest they need; when resting while awake, they can adjust to a seated position to read or watch television. Different models bring different settings for posture adjustment.
There is a wide range of hospital beds available today, all with different styles, designs, and features to fit a wide array of budgets. While virtually all hospital beds can offer some comfort and relief, less expensive beds will often forgo some of the safety, style, and advanced positioning features.
