Guest guest Posted January 19, 2012 Report Share Posted January 19, 2012 Hi, does anyone have any suggestions for a hospital bed? Right now I use a regular mattress and I'm looking into a hospital bed. I want something that looks nice and is comfortable. I'm happy with my mattress now but it was suggested that a hospital bed could do more for me. I'm worried about my caregivers not being able to get close enough to the bed to care for me and the mattress being uncomfortable. I'm not in the bed all day though. Any thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 For years I have been using a Flex-a-Bed with the high/low option. It looks like a normal queen size been when lowered and we use a Sleep Number mattress with it. It works like a typical adjustable bed, head and feet go up and down, but with the high/low option the entire bed raises, making it easier for my wife to lift me out of it.

Guest guest Posted January 20, 2012 Report Share Posted January 20, 2012 We really like the Sleep safe bed. It is not just for kids. My son has had his for about a year. It looks like a regular bed for the most part but can raise the head and legs like a hospital bed can. It comes with a specialty mattress but we have found it is too hard for him. We have bought an over lay that adds cushion and he does great with it. He has a full size bed and it is really good sized.

Guest guest Posted January 21, 2012 Report Share Posted January 21, 2012 I got this hospital bed, a Transfer Master " The Original " . It was given to me, so I didn't get to choose the size, but I was able to modify it to accommodate a full-size mattress so my sweetie has room. Also, a wider bed is nice when I'm in bed all day and want room for my laptop to my side. The handrails are optional an there's no head board or foot board. It looks like a regular bed. http://www.transfermaster.com > > Hi, does anyone have any suggestions for a hospital bed? Right now I use a regular mattress and I'm looking into a hospital bed.
