The main difference is what moves by motor and what moves by hand crank. Here is how the three types compare.
A hi-low bed lowers close to the floor to reduce the distance of a fall and raises to a comfortable working height for a caregiver. Full-electric beds do this by remote, which is why they are the most popular choice for daily care.
Most bed frames are sold without a mattress. Add a foam or pressure-redistributing mattress, and half or full side rails and accessories to match how the bed will be used.
Six things settle most decisions. Confirm the exact figures on each product page.
Full-electric for everyday caregiving and easy transfers, semi-electric for powered comfort at a lower price, or manual for lighter use. Match it to how often the bed will be adjusted.
Standard homecare beds are about twin size. Some models, like the Passport, also come in twin XL, queen, and split king for couples or taller users. Measure the room and doorway before you choose.
Choose a capacity comfortably above the user's weight. Standard homecare frames cover most needs, and bariatric beds add a wider sleep surface and a higher rating. Check the figure listed on each bed.
Frames usually ship without a mattress. Foam suits general comfort, and pressure-redistributing surfaces add comfort for people who spend most of the day in bed. See our mattresses and low-air-loss options.
Half rails aid repositioning and getting in and out, while full rails add more enclosure. Assist bars and rotating rails can make standing up easier. Add the right accessories for the user.
Hospital beds are heavy and assemble in the room. We deliver and set up across the Salt Lake Valley, or ship nationwide. If you only need one for a few weeks, a rental may be the better value.
Affinity Home Medical is a locally owned medical equipment store serving Salt Lake City and surrounding Utah communities since 2011. Come see the beds in our showroom, get help matching the type, size, and mattress to your needs, and let our team deliver and set the bed up in your home. Prefer to shop online? We ship nationwide.
A full-electric bed powers the head, foot, and height all by remote. A semi-electric bed powers the head and foot but raises and lowers the height with a hand crank. Full-electric is easier for daily caregiving, while semi-electric costs less and still gives powered comfort positions.
A hi-low bed adjusts its height. It lowers close to the floor to reduce the distance of a fall and raises to a comfortable height for a caregiver to work. On full-electric models the height is controlled by the remote.
Most homecare beds are about twin size. Some models also come larger. The Passport bed, for example, is available in twin XL, queen, and split king, which suits taller users or couples who want to share a room. Measure your space and doorway before choosing.
Standard homecare frames cover most needs, and bariatric beds add a wider sleep surface with a higher weight rating. Choose a capacity comfortably above the user's weight and confirm the exact figure listed on each bed.
Usually not. Most frames are sold on their own so you can pick the right surface. We carry foam and pressure-redistributing mattresses, plus low-air-loss options, and can help you match one to the bed and the user.
No. You do not need a prescription to buy or rent a hospital bed from us. If you plan to seek insurance or Medicare reimbursement, any prescription requirement and coverage rules are handled through your provider and plan, but nothing is required to purchase or rent from Affinity.
Buy if the bed will be needed long term or you want a specific model and mattress. Rent if you need one for a shorter recovery or a temporary situation. We offer hospital bed rentals with delivery and setup in Salt Lake City.
