Choosing Between Electrical and Manual Hospital Beds:
A Guide to Rainbow Care's Bed Options
When it comes to selecting the right hospital bed for your needs, whether for home care or healthcare facilities, Rainbow Care offers a wide range of options, including Electrical Hospital Beds and Manual Hospital Beds. Each type offers unique features, comfort, and ease of use, designed to meet the needs of both patients and caregivers. In this blog post, we will explore the differences between electrical and manual beds, their features, and why Rainbow Care’s range of hospital beds could be the perfect choice for your healthcare needs.
Key Differences Between Electrical and Manual Beds
Understanding the differences between electrical and manual beds is essential when deciding which one suits your requirements. Let’s break down the primary distinctions.
What Are 3 Crank and 2 Crank Hospital Beds?
Before we dive into what our beds are, the number of cranks refers to how many points of adjustability the bed offers for the head, foot, and height.
Electrical Beds
Understanding the differences between electrical and manual beds is essential when deciding which one suits your requirements. Let’s break down the primary distinctions.
Motorized Adjustment:
*Electrical beds are controlled by a remote, offering seamless adjustments without manual effort.
Side Panel Options:
*Choose from 2 or 3 crank models, including Luxury Plus Panels, Luxury Panels, Split Side Rails, and Classic Side Rails.
IV Drip Stand:
*All electrical models come equipped with an IV drip stand for medical support.
Lockable Wheels:
*Every electrical bed has four lockable wheels, ensuring stability and safety.
Manual Beds
Manual beds, on the other hand, require physical cranking to adjust the head, foot, and height of the bed. While not as high-tech as electrical models, manual beds are still a reliable option, offering the same comfort and functionality with a more traditional approach.
Manual Cranking:
*Manual beds are adjusted using a hand crank, giving caregivers more control over the bed’s settings.
Side Panel Options:
*Available in 2 or 3 crank models, with Luxury Panels, Split Side Rails, and Classic Side Rails.
IV Drip Stand:
*All electrical models come equipped with an IV drip stand for medical support.
Lockable Wheels:
*Every electrical bed has four lockable wheels, ensuring stability and safety.
