  • What are electric and hospital beds?

    In many cases, a hospital bed helps ensure professional and safe care at home in the event of illness, after an accident and in old age, because hospital beds can be adjusted in many ways and are therefore particularly comfortable for those affected – and they make care easier for relatives and care staff.
