# Hospital bed or care bed? How to choose a home care bed range

“Hospital bed” and “care bed” describe the same kind of product: an adjustable bed with side rails, used for care at home or in a care setting. Buyers use both words. This page compares the two types in the TORSUN catalogue and lists what to confirm before you order.

## Electric or manual

Two catalogue care beds compared

| --- | --- | --- |
| Type | Three-function electric | Two-crank manual |
| Adjustment | Three motors | Two manual cranks |
| Other listed features | Handset control | Castor-mounted frame |

An electric bed needs a power supply that matches the destination market. A manual bed works without power, and someone turns the cranks by hand. Which one suits your customers depends on who will use the bed and who will operate it.

## What to confirm before you order

- Bed and mattress dimensions

- Required adjustment functions

- Side rails

- Controls

- Electrical specification for the destination market

- Supplied accessories

- The supplier documents your market asks for

All figures are catalogue values. Confirm the selected configuration and the current supplier documents before ordering. We can arrange a sample so you can check the bed before a larger order.
