Automated hospital beds are technologically advanced medical beds equipped with motorized mechanisms to adjust height, backrest angle, and leg elevation. They typically feature remote controls for easy operation, enhancing both patient comfort and caregiver efficiency. These beds often incorporate additional functions such as integrated scales, bed exit alarms, and pressure redistribution systems, aimed at improving patient care and safety. Their design is specifically tailored to support medical treatments and enhance the overall hospital experience.
There are two main types of automated hospital beds semi-automatic and fully automatic. Semi-automatic beds allow healthcare staff to manually adjust settings using controls on the bed's frame or a remote. These beds are utilized across various healthcare settings including critical care, acute care, and long-term care. Their applications span hospitals, clinics, reproductive care centers, dentistry, home care, and other medical facilities.
