What is a home care bed?

Electric nursing bed

Home electric nursing beds can generally be divided into five function electric nursing beds, four function electric nursing beds, three function electric nursing beds, and two function electric nursing beds based on the number of imported motors used. Its main features also lie in the motor, process design, and luxurious configuration equipment, such as European style guardrails, aluminum alloy guardrails, operation remote controls, full brake central control wheels, etc. It was initially mainly suitable for monitoring patients with severe conditions in intensive care departments, but with the development of the times, electric nursing beds with home style design have also emerged and gradually applied to home care.
Hand cranked nursing bed
Multi functional hand cranked nursing beds are generally divided into luxury multifunctional three roll nursing beds, two roll three fold beds, and single roll beds according to the number of joysticks. Its main features are the joystick device and the ability to configure different accessories, such as a toilet bowl, reasonable process design, and different material choices. It is generally suitable for each department in the hospital's inpatient department.


General nursing bed

Ordinary nursing beds, also known as straight or flat beds, may include simple hand cranked beds depending on the situation, and are generally suitable for various hospitals and clinics.
Capable of functionality
The general home care bed has the following functions, and it is not necessarily better to have more functions. It mainly depends on the physical condition of your family members and which functions are suitable. If the functions are too few, it cannot achieve the ideal care effect, and if there are too many functions, some functions cannot be used.
1、 Back lifting function
This function is the most needed, on the one hand, it promotes blood circulation, and on the other hand, patients can sit up to eat and read, which can solve many problems. This is also a function that nursing beds on the market have
2、 Leg bending function
Basically, it can be divided into upward bending and downward bending. Both upward and downward can promote blood circulation. Everyone has their own needs, and basically one of them is enough. Most nursing beds on the market also have this function. However, in my personal opinion, it is best to be upward. Imagine if it can only be upward, it means that when placed flat, the bed board is resting on the bed frame. But if it can move up and down, it means that the bed board is completely detached from the bed frame. It's not very reassuring to think about it.
3、 Chair position function
This function is very practical, allowing patients to sit up like they are in a chair and push around.
4、 Flip over function
Patients who have been bedridden for a long time, such as paralysis, coma, and partial trauma, need to frequently turn over to prevent bedsores. Manual turning requires at least 1-2 people to complete. [2] The nursing bed for paralyzed patients can enable patients to turn over at any angle from 0-60 degrees. After turning over, nursing staff can assist patients in adjusting their side sleeping posture, allowing them to rest more comfortably. The multifunctional widened nursing bed is designed more human-oriented, further improving nursing work and making nursing work easier. The nursing bed for paralyzed patients can not only automatically turn over, but also regularly turn over as a whole.
5、 Toilet function
The electric toilet bowl is turned on, and when used in conjunction with the functions of lifting the back and bending the legs, it can achieve a sitting position for the human body to urinate and defecate, making it convenient for the patient to do cleaning work later.
6、 Hair washing and foot washing function
Remove the mattress at the head position of the nursing bed for paralyzed patients, insert it into the dedicated hair washing basin equipped on the nursing bed for paralyzed patients, and use a certain angle of lifting function to achieve the hair washing function. The bed tail can be removed, and with the function of a wheelchair, it can be more convenient for patients to wash their feet and massage.
7、 Folding guardrail function
This function is mainly for the convenience of nursing, making it easy for patients to get in and out of bed. It is recommended to choose a good guardrail, otherwise it will be even worse if it gets stuck there and cannot get up or down.
