We used a Sleep Number i10 for seven years.  With the adjustable base, it was $10K, but no pressure wounds. And big time comfort.

Subject: hospital bed mattress

 

Hello all,

 

Has anyone found an alternative mattress for a hospital bed?  One that is comfortable?  I seem to have quite a few people in need of more comfort and alternating pressure pads/mattresses aren’t helping. 

 

What are people recommending since the standard hospital bed mattresses are so uncomfortable???

 

Any input appreciated! 

 

Alisa
