Do you know the difference between a regular bed and a hospital bed?
Well, a hospital bed is a specialized bed which has been
designed to meet the needs of the hospital environment. There are a number of
features which distinguish a hospital bed from a regular bed, and these
features also tend to make hospital beds more costly. On occasion, people need
hospital beds for home use, typically because they are caring for people with
needs. Most commonly, these beds are leased by companies at outrages cost which
maintain medical equipment for this purpose, although they can also be
purchased from us for the cost of a regular/manual bed at a retail price.
The most distinctive feature of a hospital bed is that it is
fully adjustable. Hospital beds typically can be adjusted in a wide range of
ways to support a patient's back, make it easier to perform procedures, and for
various other purposes. A basic hospital bed may be split into two sections
which can be raised in various ways, and more sophisticated beds have
additional sections for the purpose of making very precise adjustments to meet
the specific needs of a patient.
Hospital beds also typically have rails, which are designed
to prevent patients from rolling out. These rails can be raised and lowered to
perform procedures or to make patients feel more comfortable. Lowering the
rails also allows hospital staff to transfer patients from beds to gurneys,
such as those used to transport patients to the operating room for procedures.
Many hospital beds are also movable so that patients can be relocated with
minimal disturbance.
Typically the head of a hospital bed has a control panel
which allows hospital staff to make adjustments to the bed. Patients can also
use the control panel to do things like call a nurse in the event of an
emergency. The bed may also have poles for the purpose of hanging bags of
intravenous fluids, and it may include drawers to store various tools needed
for procedures. There is also a space at the foot of the bed for the patient's
chart.
