Built for real life

What stands out

●
The deck widens by pulling pins
Four positions: 39", 42", 48" and 54". You change the width in place, with no tools and no extension kit to order, so one bed covers a range of body sizes and can be narrowed to get through a doorway.
●
Rated at 1000 lbs.
That is the safe working load and it covers the person, the mattress, the boards and the rails together. Drive rates the user alone at 756 lbs.
●
Narrows to 38.2" to move
In its mobility position the bed is 38.2" wide, which is what lets a 54" bed leave the room it was set up in.
●
Head to 68 degrees, knee to 38"
The head raises to 68 degrees for eating and breathing, the thigh section to 38 degrees, and the foot to 22 degrees.
●
A pendant socket on both sides
The hand control plugs in on either side, so the bed does not have to be turned around to suit the room.
●
Drop-down padded assist rails are standard
Both rails come with the bed and drop out of the way for transfers. There is nothing to add here for side support.
The Hieline Take

The reason to buy this bed rather than a fixed-width bariatric bed is that you do not have to guess the width right on the day you order. It goes from 39" to 54" in four steps by pulling pins, in the room, in a couple of minutes, so a bed bought at 42" is still the right bed if the person's needs change or if a different resident uses it later. That flexibility is also what gets it into the house: at 38.2" in its mobility position it goes through a standard doorway and then opens out. Two things to plan for before you order. The first is the mattress, which is not included and has to widen with the deck, so budget for a bariatric mattress and match it to the deck length you choose. The second is the room: at 92" without the wall guard and 100" with it, this bed is longer than a domestic double, and at 469 lbs. empty it is not something to reposition casually. One thing the frame can do that we do not sell the part for is Trendelenburg, which needs Drive's lockable staff control. If the tilt is the reason you are buying, this is not the bed to buy from us.

Straight talk

Is it right for you?

A good fit if you

  • need a bed above the 450 lbs. that ordinary homecare beds stop at
  • do not yet know what width will be needed, or expect it to change
  • have to get the bed into a room through a normal doorway
  • want the padded assist rails included rather than bought separately

Look elsewhere if you

  • weigh under 450 lbs., where a standard homecare bed costs a fraction of this
  • cannot give the bed 92" to 100" of wall
  • need the bed lower than 19.1" to the deck
  • are not also budgeting for a bariatric mattress, which this bed needs and does not include
