When Do You Need a Hospital Bed ?

Hospitals beds are not just for those who are sick or elderly or in the hospital. They are now referred to as electric beds as they have become essential for those recovering from illness. The fully electric hospital beds allow you to adjust the back, knee and overall height of the bed to your desired needs independently.

TOP 6 REASONS FOR HOSPITAL BEDS USE

1. Safety

Hospital Beds are often necessary for people with conditions that need caregivers monitoring and pay attention or occasional restraint from falling. People who are at risk of falling will many times require hospital beds for the use of half rails to keep them on bed. The half rails are adjustable to slide up and down out of the way, designed to keep people in bed or provide a stable and secure item to assist getting out of bed.

2. Transferring

One of the most significant benefits of hospital beds is the ease of transferring. Hospital beds allow the patient to raise or lower the bed to a height that makes transferring the patient to a seated position, chair, wheelchair, or walker easier and reduce pain. Those with hip pain, lower back injury or pain, and some surgeries make moving and getting in and out of bed painful. What’s more, the fully electric hospital bed and its ability to raise or lower makes getting in and out on ones own much easier.

3. Caregiver Assistance

Caregivers receive an unexpected benefit from the use of hospital beds with loved ones  as picking them up out of bed, or carrying them from bed to chairs etc can become physically taxing on them. The elevating hospital bed can raise to higher height to make transferring the patient easier and less stressful on the body. The raising back section of the bed allows the caregiver to move the patient to a seated position. The happier and healthier the caregiver feels, the more excited they will be to go to work and take care of their friends, family or patients. 

4. Improved Circulation 

Hospital beds allow users to alter and adjust the bed to better position, the back and the knee. These changes allow for movement as well as periodic change to the pressure points on the body, thereby improving the patients’ blood circulation while they are in bed.

5. Injury or Lack of Mobility

With certain injuries or surgeries, people with temporarily or permanently lose some of their mobility. Often times, people will have their bed rooms on the second floor and climbing the stairs is too difficult to do post surgery or with some injuries. Hospital Bed Rentals provide a convenient, temporary option to allow you to sleep on the ground level and make getting in and out of bed easier with less pain. 

6. Better Positioning for Patients

When people are forced to spend extended periods of time in bed, the pressure that their body places on the bed causes a lot of heat that becomes trapped between the one’s clothing, bed and skin that will cause pressure sores or bed sores. These sores are extremely uncomfortable and difficult to manage. Hospital beds will often be recommended as an alternative so that they can re-position their body with easy to rotate themselves and displace the pressure throughout the body to alleviate sore.
