Access is the name of the game when it comes to the Flex a Bed Hi Low.  This queen size hospital bed can get as low as 16.5” from the floor when used with a low-profile mattress.  That simplifies the process of transfers and makes getting in easier for those who may have limited strength.  The Flex a Bed has multiple queen sizes available.  One option is a classic queen that is 60 inches wide and 80 inches long.  There are also custom queen size hospital beds with lengths of 75 inches or 84 inches.  Accessories such as rails and casters are available as optional add-ons.

Transfer Master Supernal 5 Hospital Style Bed

The Transfer Master Supernal 5 is compatible with a low profile hoyer lift.  While the head and foot can be adjusted similar to other queen size hospital beds, it also has Trendelenburg positions.  Both the Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg positions afford a ten-degree incline when laying flat.  The standard queen Supernal 5 lacks the massage feature but it can be added as an upgrade.  Other optional components include half rails for the head, bamboo rail covers and a cherry finish headboard.  The electrical mechanisms in his bed are hidden so it looks less like a hospital bed.

Transfer Master Valiant SHD (Weight Capacity 750 lbs)

Queen Hospital Bed Vs Twin Hospital Bed

When you first learned about home hospital beds did your mind envision those small ones used in medical facilities?  It’s no surprise that hospitals use smaller beds.  They must be able to transport them through halls passing people and other beds.  They must be able to fit more of them into each room and store them when not in use.  At home, you might want something that provides a more generous sleep surface.  The size is the biggest difference in comparing a queen size hospital bed and a twin-size hospital bed.  A twin will be 38 inches wide while a queen is 60 inches wide.  Both vary in lengths depending on if they are traditional or custom sizes.

Selecting a Queen Size Hospital Bed

Deciding on which queen size hospital bed is a good fit for your personal needs comes down to its features.  There are many shared features across the board, like the ability to adjust the head and feet.  However, there are some unique features that differ from one queen size hospital bed to the next.  Below are just a few of the feature you may find on these beds that are design to meet your day-to-day needs.

• Wired or Wireless Remote, High-Low Adjustability, Massage, Casters, Floor Lighting, Saved Positioning, Side and Head Rails, Catheter Hook, Pillow Tilt, Wall hugger
