Bringing care into your home can feel overwhelming, especially when it comes to choosing the right hospital bed. But don’t worry—it’s easier than it sounds. This guide breaks it all down so you can find a bed that fits your space, your needs, and your comfort.
Twin-size beds are the most popular for home use. They’re about 38 inches wide and 80 inches long—just enough room for comfort without taking up too much space. These beds are perfect for small rooms or patients who don’t need a lot of space to move around.
If you need a little more space, a full-size bed gives you 54 inches of width. That’s a great choice for bigger patients or those who toss and turn in their sleep.
Want even more room? Queen and king-size beds are available too. A queen bed is 60 inches wide, and a king-size bed is a whopping 76 inches. These are ideal if you need to share the bed with a caregiver or just want maximum comfort.
Heavier patients need stronger beds. Bariatric hospital beds are built to support 600 to 1,000 pounds and can be as wide as 48 inches. They offer top-level safety and comfort.
For children, pediatric beds are the right fit. They’re smaller and come with safety features like adjustable guardrails. Sizes usually range from 36 inches wide and 60 to 72 inches long.
The most common size is 80 inches long and 36 inches wide. That’s a sweet spot for most home care needs.
Have a tall patient? No problem. Some beds go up to 88 inches long so feet don’t hang off the edge.
Certain beds let you change the width too, usually between 36 to 48 inches. Handy for different body types or room sizes.
Most hospital beds can go from 16 to 28 inches high. That makes it easier for patients to get in and out, and for caregivers to avoid back pain. That’s a win-win!
Manual beds use cranks. They’re simple, but they require more effort. An Electric Bed, on the other hand, lets you adjust height, backrest, and leg position with the push of a button. It’s a game-changer for both patients and caregivers.
Think about getting a hospital bed with guardrails, built-in trays, or IV poles. These little add-ons can make everyday care a lot easier.
