Hospital beds have features that increase the comfort for those in recovery and make it easier to manage mobility issues. Some basic features of a care bed include side rails, adjustable headrests and footrests, adjustable heights, and more room in which the patient can move around. Hospital beds are an ideal option for anyone who must be off their feet for extended periods or have trouble getting in and out of bed.
Ordinary beds are insufficient in cases of long-term immobility, leading to problems like bedsores and longer healing times. Certain conditions can make it more difficult to eat, drink, and get a good night's sleep in a regular bed. Through SonderCare, anyone can add the utility and support of a hospital bed in the comfort of their own home or residence.
Hospital beds also make it easier for caregivers, as the height and positions are adjustable to make getting in and out of bed with less strain. The patient and caregiver can also raise the bed to make it easier for the caregiver to attend to the patient without bending over.
Hospital beds aren't only for those in recovery: seniors living by themselves, with family, or in a residence can enjoy the comfort, safety, and independence provided by hospital beds. They and their families can purchase hospital beds for their homes or residential facilities designed for their needs and specifications. The best part is that SonderCare models neither look nor feel like hospital beds - they look and feel luxurious. Anyone with long-term mobility issues will find their lives improved by a private hospital bed that feels like a regular bed!
Hospital beds and mattresses offer comfort, support and durability, and are ideal for private settings. SonderCare makes it easy for consumers to find hospital beds that work for them. Our beds provide the care and support for people that a traditional hospital bed would, while being the only option on the market that combines functionality with an attractive, stylish, non-institutional design.

Top 5 Things to Know Before Buying a Hospital Bed
Patient Requirements Are Paramount
No two people are the same. There are a lot of personal considerations to think about to ensure you choose right bed with the right set of features. Most beds have a standard set of features, but there are also countless additional customizable options you can add based on the persons care needs. Think about:
Why is the bed needed?
What type of ailment does the person have?
How long will the person use the bed daily?
What is the persons mobility level?
Can they get out of bed themselves or do they need assistance?
Are there specific features the person needs?
Consider Caregiver Support Requirements
On the flip side, its also important to think about the person who will be the primary caregiver, even if its just a family member helping occasionally. Are there specific hospital bed features that the caregiver could use to make it easier for them to provide care?
For example, does a bed that offers a variety of positions make it easier to offer care? Does the bed easily raise up and down to make it easier to help your loved one or yourself transition in and out of bed? Is the caregiver strong enough to use a manually adjusting bed? Is an electric bed a better option?
It is a lot easier for a caregiver to potentially injure themselves if they cannot properly position the bed or if they do not have the right features to use.
Hospital Bed Size And Spacing
The size of the bed can often be overlooked. Hospital beds in general take up more space than most traditional beds. You need to choose a bed that fits the patient comfortably. Do you need a longer or wider than normal bed? You also need to factor in the size of the bedroom. How much space do you have to work with? Where is best to position the bed? Will you need to remove any furniture to get the bed in the best position? Also consider other medical equipment that may also need to be in the room.
Quality Matters
While cost is always an important factor when making any type of significant purchase, buying a hospital bed is one area where you do not want to cut corners on quality. The quality of bed you choose can have a direct impact on the patient's level of comfort. Considering how much use the bed will get and how much it will be used daily, its worth choosing a higher quality option. Research manufacturers and have a list of features you need and don't need to ensure you are getting a high-quality bed and the best value.
Buy A Good Mattress
If you are in the market for a hospital bed, you will likely be looking for a mattress to go with it. Much like a mattress for a standard bed, you have a lot of options to choose from. Choose a mattress that is best suited for the person in need. The mattress has one of the biggest impacts on the patient's overall health and comfort level. The more time they spend in bed daily, the more important it is to invest more into a higher quality mattress.
How Is Having a Home Hospital Bed Beneficial?
Hospital beds can be adjusted to various heights depending on your preference, with no dangerous middle gap. They're built to be sturdier than regular beds with the ability to withstand heavy weight while still maintaining a quiet, smooth operation. Other benefits include:
-Easy and safe transfers
-Adjustable to reduce aches and pains
-Stay in the home you love
-Designed and crafted to be safe
-Makes recovery easier
What's a Normal Size for a Hospital Bed?
A standard hospital bed measures 36 inches in width and 80 inches in length. Some beds are built to be fully expandable to accommodate someone who may need a wider bed. Specifically, this bed expands from 39" to 54" in width and 80" to 88" in length. It also has a weight capacity of 1000lbs. How wide and tall you want your bed is up to you.
How Do I Know Which Bed is Right for Me?
The first step in picking a home hospital bed is deciding if you want a semi-electric or full-electric bed. These two-bed types are described below. After that, you should consider what length and width you desire. After narrowing it down, it's time to figure out the smaller details like what warranty you want on the bed and what style of headboard it comes with.
What's a Semi-Electric Bed?
A semi-electric bed allows for the head and foot to be raised and lowered electronically by using a remote controller. However, the bed itself must be adjusted manually using a crank. This type of bed requires a little bit more physical work for caretakers.
What's a Full-Electric Bed?
On the other hand, full-electric beds are raised and lowered electronically for both the head, foot and bed itself. No manual adjustments are required as everything can be adjusted using the remote controller. This makes the job easier on caregivers and can even make life easier for the individual using the bed.
