Yes, the Classic bed is suitable for on-bed nursing. The bed raises up to 80cm (measured from floor to top of mattress platform) which is waist level. Even the tallest carers will be able to perform on-the-bed care at this height.
The Classic lowers to an easy access height of 40cm (measured from floor to top of mattress platform). This will be suitable for most users and can be raised electrically to support getting off the bed. For users who struggle to swing their legs onto the bed when getting in, a bed that lowers closer to the floor may be more beneficial - see our SIgnature and Solo bed collections.
The classic profiling bed does not include a mattress. Mattresses are sold separately and can be added to your basket at any time. Our pressure care mattresses are usually purchased with a profiling bed. These are designed to relieve and prevent pressure damage. We also have a collection of comfort mattresses that are suitable for the Classic bed.
Yes, the Opera Classic comes with side rails as standard. They can be raised to prevent falls and when not in use they drop down below the mattress and act as a wooden side to the bed.
The wooden side rails can only be operated by a person outside of the Classic bed. Raising the rails to prevent falls is simple and a finger-operated securing latch holds them firmly in place. The rails can be lowered below the mattress when not in use.
