Drive Medical Semi Electric Hospital Bed Mattress, Full Rails
Drive Medical Multi Height Manual Hospital Bed with Half Rails & Innerspring Mattress
Coming with a noiseless motor for head and foot adjustments, a manual crank for height adjustment, the drive medical semi electric hospital bed is peek into two different worlds; the world where everything is manual and tedious, and the world where everything is automatic and seamless.
The drive medical semi-electric bed has a pendant which can be clipped on top of the bed rails so that the patient can easily reach out the control and adjust the bed as per their needs.
Say for example that you are away and the patient would love to watch the telly that is standing just in front of them on a low stool. With a manual bed, they wouldn’t be able to watch the telly comfortably no matter what. With a semi electric bed though, the adjustment is right under their nose and all they have to do is stretch a little bit and reach the pendant to change the bed positioning.
