Profiling Beds

Is a Profiling Bed the Right Choice?

Profiling beds are designed to provide greater flexibility, comfort and support than a standard bed. By allowing different sections of the bed to be adjusted, they can help improve positioning, transfers and day-to-day comfort for both users and carers.

When comparing profiling beds, consider:

• User mobility requirements
• Transfer and care needs
• Bed height adjustment options
• Available bedroom space
• Weight capacity requirements

Because profiling beds are often used as part of a wider care setup, it is important to consider both the user’s needs and the practicalities of the room where the bed will be used.
