How often should Hospital beds be tested?

Http://www.piedmontmedicalinc.com 

Well, Hospital Beds safety should include plans for testing the hospital bed at least once a week. 

Testing may be appropriate when (1) there is reason to believe that some components are worn (e.g., rails wobble, rails have been damaged, mattresses are softer) and could cause increased spaces within the hospital bed system, (2) when accessories such as mattress overlays or positioning poles are added or removed, or (3) when components of the hospital bed system (e.g., new bed rails or mattresses) are changed or replaced.

Do you need a hospital bed?

Well, Piedmont Medical can make it very easy for you. We have more hospital beds reconditioned or used in stock than all the dealers in the USA combined.

Choices range from manual to full-electric. Factors in the choice include user needs, caregiver availability, cost and comfort.

Manual Bed Frames - These beds are just that, manual. All functions such as raising and lowering the head or adjusting the height of the bed are done with a hand-crank. These home-quality beds are appropriate when there is someone around who can make the adjustments and when cost is a factor.

Semi-Electric - A semi-electric bed is a choice that increases function and independence while still being sensitive to cost.  A semi-electric home-quality bed has electric controls for raising and lowering the head and feet but a manual crank for adjusting the height of the bed.

Full-Electric Home-Quality Beds - These beds do it all with a touch of a button, giving the bed-user full control and independence.  All adjustments are made through the electric controls.  And don't worry both semi and full-electric beds can be adjusted manually in case of a power outage.
