Many medical conditions, especially cardiovascular illnesses, require the patient to change their position in ways they can’t achieve in an ordinary bed. These can include chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), and patients with severe cardiac conditions who can leave the bed but must avoid physical strain can also qualify for hospital bed coverage. These patients may need to have the head of the bed elevated more than 30 degrees due to their medical issues, but this usually comes after the doctor considers pillows or wedges and rules them out. 

Moreover, bedside tables can be customized to meet the specific needs of the facility and its patients. For instance, some tables come with built-in trays or compartments that can accommodate various medical devices like glucose meters or supplementary oxygen supplies. This customization helps cater to the diverse needs of patients, from those requiring intensive care to those in rehabilitation, enhancing their overall experience.

Moreover, utilizing diverse equipment helps maintain patient engagement. With a variety of tools, therapists can introduce new exercises frequently, preventing monotony. Engaged patients are more likely to adhere to their rehabilitation programs, which is crucial for successful outcomes.
