Staying Comfortable in Healthcare Bed at Home: Choosing the Right Hospital Bed for Homecare

Author: Marketing Team - Statewide Home Health Care   Date Posted: 21 April 2021 

Sometimes, having a hospital bed at home is the best solution to ensure a safe and comfortable environment for ongoing care, recovery or treatment for a variety of conditions for children, adults, and seniors.

While there are different types of hospital beds on the market, Volker healthcare beds are among the best and have several features that make them a great choice.

Some of the benefits of choosing a Volker healthcare bed as a pediatric bed for a child are:

  • Safety- These beds have rails to protect your loved one and keep them safe. Or, if the rails are not required, they can be easily moved for transfers or additional independence.
  • Independence- Volker beds Australia come with a hand unit that can be easily controlled by you or your child in their pediatric hospital bed for home. This can give them some independence to position themselves in a way that is comfortable. And it means less work for you to ensure they are sitting or lying down comfortably.
  • Comfort- The micro-stimulation system in the Volker beds creates a comfortable surface. Volker beds also prevent pressure sores which can be a common problem for a child who requires a hospital bed.
