Make life easier with a home hospital bed
If you've had a recent stay in hospital or you have a loved one who needs extra care at home, a hospital bed could be the perfect solution for your situation.
Hospital beds have back, leg and height adjustment features to help you get in and out of bed. They also maximise comfort and assist nursing care staff where required, as well as increasing patient safety.
The Opera® range of hospital home care beds is thoughtfully styled for use in the home and represents just one of the main bed types we produce.
Opera Beds has long been recognised as the trusted experts for bed-based care, manufacturing many different types of bed for use at home. We've created a range of beds and mattresses that look modern and comfortable, giving customers better variety over the more traditional, clinical medical beds that people often expect.
Our commitment to balancing functionality with attractive designs has enabled us to build beds that our customers truly love. If you'd like to buy a hospital bed from us, all the essential information can be found on this page.
If you'd like to find out a little more about the Opera Beds process before committing to a purchase, our friendly team will be happy to help.
What Is a Hospital Bed?
Hospital beds (also called hospital-style beds) have all the functionality of a bed you would find in a hospital ward - but there are a few key differences.
The beds we make are thoughtfully styled for the home environment, making them much nicer to look at. Our range of hospital beds are pleasantly styled, unlike traditional hospital beds that are institutional looking. Our homely designed hospital beds ensure people using them feel at home whilst catering to their needs.
Our beds have several features that can help with nursing care. Settings include back adjustment options for sitting up in bed and leg adjustment for elevating your feet. Most of our beds also allow for different height adjustments, meaning that the whole bed can be raised and lowered to ease access and facilitate nursing care.
Our beds come in a variety of different styles and widths that can be customised with headboard and fabric options. This allows you to choose a hospital bed that suits your needs and your decor.
At Opera Beds, we provide the entire package. As well as a wide range of adjustable mattress types to choose from, you can also add accessories such as grab handles, overbed tables, fall-prevention side rails and more to support you in your home.

Get Quality Care at Home
One of the primary reasons people choose to purchase a hospital bed is because they have a medical condition or mobility issues in which a bed can help them. Either the hospital or care home may recommend the use of a hospital bed, or a user or loved one may get in touch directly.
Regardless of the situation you find yourself in, a hospital bed provides comfort and support and makes life easier. They promote independence and allow you to live comfortably at home.
Our home hospital beds are specifically designed for those who might otherwise need community care and are ideal for bed-based care. They can be adjusted to different heights to help carers if they're needed.
If in doubt about what sort of bed you might need, get in touch and we'll go through your options.
No Need to Hire a Bed
If you're coming out of the hospital, you can also choose to apply to hire a bed. However, whilst this may be cheaper than buying a bed, there may be long waits and look like a traditional hospital bed.
There is a significant demand for hospital beds, affecting both those available in hospitals and those you can rent from local government agencies. Due to this high demand, these beds are often rented out on a temporary basis. Alternatively, you can rent beds from private companies, although this option can be quite costly over time.
At Opera Beds, we have an extremely quick turnaround time, from ordering the bed all the way through to installation. We can deliver to you within a week if you need a bed urgently - you can also opt for our home installation service, in which our Opera® engineers set up your bed in your home.
On a budget? Not a problem. We offer a wide range of beds at different price points. If you think you might need to use the bed for a long period of time, buying (instead of hiring) is the long-term money-saving option. Have a browse through our available stock of care beds to see which bed might be best for your situation.
Choosing the Right Hospital Bed for You
If you'd like to buy one of our beds but you're not quite sure how the process works, there's no need to worry. We make the buying process simple. Starting with a free consultation to understand you/your loved ones needs and have plenty of stocked beds available for same-day dispatch.
If you or a loved one is due to come out of hospital soon, your health care planning team is likely to have asked you to arrange for a hospital bed for your home. They usually won't be willing to proceed with the discharge until suitable arrangements have been made, although this will depend on your personal circumstances.
The team at Opera Beds is here to help you through this process, assisting you by advising on the most suitable medical bed for your healthcare needs. 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 comfortably.
Once you've had a browse through the different bed options available, we recommend you give our team a call to help you choose the one that's most suitable for you.
Once you are confident you know which bed is right for you, we aim to deliver your bed as quickly as possible. We understand that timing can be crucial when dealing with patient care, which is why we have plenty of beds available for delivery within a week.
