A Hi-Lo Bed is a type of electric adjustable bed that allows the entire sleeping platform to be raised or lowered. The bed height can be adjusted vertically at the touch of a button, which makes it easier for users to get in and out of bed — and safer for carers providing assistance.
Unlike standard adjustable beds, Hi-Lo Beds also often feature profiling sections that support the head, back, knees and legs for enhanced comfort and positioning.
Hi-Lo Beds are sometimes referred to as:
-
Profiling Beds
-
Nursing Beds
-
Hospital Beds for Home Use
-
Carers’ Beds
-
Medical Adjustable Beds
Who Benefits From a Hi-Lo Adjustable Bed?
Hi-Lo beds are ideal for:
-
Elderly individuals experiencing reduced mobility
-
People living with chronic conditions such as arthritis or MS
-
Individuals recovering from surgery or injury
-
Anyone receiving home care from a nurse or family member
-
Those at risk of falls or requiring hoist transfers
The ability to raise the bed height makes it easier and safer for carers to assist with dressing, repositioning, and daily routines — helping prevent back strain or injury. At the same time, users gain more independence and comfort in their day-to-day life.
