I Care Homecare Beds Melbourne | Electric Adjustable Beds

Q: Can I Care beds support carer tasks?

Many I Care models allow helpful positioning for care, but not all include full hi-lo height. An allied health professional should confirm whether a specific I Care bed meets manual handling and safety requirements for the person and carers.

Q: Do I Care beds come in different sizes?

Many I Care bed models are available in single, king single and other sizes. Product information provides full dimensions, and the room should be measured to ensure safe fit and space for any walking aids or hoists.

Q: How do I know if I need an I Care bed or a full hospital bed?

I Care homecare beds are well suited to comfort, independent positioning and a homely bedroom look. A full hospital bed may be required when carers need higher working heights, complex positioning, hoist access or specific rail configurations. An allied health professional can recommend the safest option.

Frequently asked questions

Frequently asked questions about I Care homecare beds

? Who usually chooses an I Care homecare bed?

I Care homecare beds are popular with people living at home who need adjustable support for comfort, reflux, breathing or mobility, and prefer a homely appearance instead of a clinical-looking hospital bed. They can suit older adults, people with long-term health conditions and anyone who wants help sitting up, getting out of bed or finding a more comfortable sleeping position. Your allied health professional can help decide if an I Care bed is appropriate for your needs.

? Can I Care beds support carer tasks?

Many I Care models allow helpful positioning for care, such as raising the backrest or legs to make personal care and transfers easier. However, not all models include full hi-lo height, and some may not reach the same working height as a hospital bed. If carers are providing regular hands-on support, your occupational therapist or physiotherapist should confirm whether a specific I Care bed meets manual handling and safety requirements for your situation.

? Which mattresses work with I Care beds?

I Care beds are typically paired with compatible therapeutic or pressure care mattresses that are designed to flex with the bed mechanism. Using the correct mattress helps support comfort, alignment and any pressure care plan from your therapist. Our team can help you choose suitable mattress options based on comfort, support level and clinical recommendations, and you can explore brands and models in our product catalogues .

? Do I Care beds come in different sizes?

Yes. Many I Care models are available in single, king single and other sizes, including some dual configurations. Product pages list full dimensions, including overall bed length and width. We recommend measuring your room, bedside tables, wardrobes and doorways, and allowing space for walking aids, wheelchairs or hoists if they are used. Our team can help you plan a safe layout before you purchase.

? How do I know if I need an I Care bed or a full hospital bed?

I Care homecare beds are ideal when the main goals are comfort, independent positioning and a homely bedroom look. A full hospital bed may be more suitable if carers need higher working heights, complex positioning, hoist access or specific rail setups. Your allied health professional can assess your mobility, falls risk, pressure care needs and carer tasks, then recommend whether an I Care bed or a hospital bed is the safer choice. Our team can then help you compare features and pricing across both options.

? Can I Care homecare beds be funded through the NDIS?

In many cases, I Care beds and compatible mattresses are funded as assistive technology under the NDIS when they are recommended by an allied health professional and clearly linked to goals such as safer sleep, improved independence and staying at home for longer. These items usually require an assessment and written recommendations. For more information on assistive technology, you can visit the NDIS page on assistive technology explained . We can provide detailed quotes, product specifications and invoices for participants, support coordinators and plan managers.

? Do you hire I Care beds as well as sell them?

Depending on stock and clinical advice, some adjustable or home-style beds may be available for short-term hire through our dedicated hire service. This can be useful after surgery, during rehab or while NDIS or other funding is being arranged. Current hire options and availability are listed at https://hire.shhc.com.au/ . If you are unsure whether to hire or buy, or you need help checking measurements and layout, please contact our team with details from your therapist or care team.
