Aged care beds are specifically designed to meet the unique needs of elderly individuals. They often come with features that standard beds lack, including adjustable heights, side rails, and specialized mattresses that prevent pressure sores. These beds can be adjusted to various positions, making it easier for caregivers to assist residents with daily activities such as getting in and out of bed, reading, or watching television. The ability to elevate the upper body can also be particularly helpful for elderly individuals who suffer from conditions such as respiratory issues or heart disease.
