What is a hospital-style bed?
Hospital-style beds have all the functionality of a bed you would find in a hospital ward but are thoughtfully styled for the home environment. They have back adjustment for sitting up in bed, leg adjustment for elevating your feet, and most have height adjustment which means the whole bed can raise and lower to ease access and facilitate nursing on the bed. They come in different sizes and styles, and you can select different mattress types to go on the bed. You can also add accessories such as grab handles, overbed tables, falls-prevention side rails and more to support you in your own home.Why choose an Opera® hospital bed?

How we can help you get a hospital bed
If you or a loved one are due to come out of hospital, your care team are likely to have asked you to arrange for a hospital bed for your home before they're willing to proceed with the discharge. We're here to help you through this process and can assist you in advising the most suitable medical bed for your healthcare needs. Likewise, if you're already living at home and your needs have progressed, we'll work with you to supply a bed for long-term care to enable you to stay at home.
Once you have had a browse of the different bed options, we recommend you give our team a call to help you choose the best one that's right for you. You can also use our online bed selector tool which will ask you questions and help you identify beds that meet your requirements.
Once you know the bed you need, we understand timing can be crucial. We provide fast home delivery and installation options with next day and same day options where needed.
