Are you a hospital, hospice facility, or care provider looking for the best hospital mattress for sale?
Here’s why you should give Mattress Insider a call right now:

- Almost any design available. Looking for a gel memory foam mattress for your hospital beds? Maybe you want a traditional foam hospital bed mattress. You can order it. The only mattress type we don’t offer are air mattress options.
- Order only what you need. Need only 1 healthcare mattress? Need 10,000? You can order as many as you’d like.
- Get them quickly. Order today and you can get up to 1000 mattresses manufactured and delivered in 7-10 business days. Need something faster? Call us 888-488-1468.
- Order any size or shape. While the most common hospital bed dimensions take a 36″ x 80″ mattress, that’s not always the case. You can order any size/shape you want. Want a queen sized mattress for your hospital bed? You can do that.
- Medical mattress toppers also available. Get a gel overlay for your hospital bed. Latex and traditional memory foam toppers are also available.
- Get accessories. You can order medical mattress pads, hospital mattress covers, and sheets.

Frequently Asked Medical Bed Mattress Questions
Q: What is the best mattress for a hospital bed?
A: The best mattress for a hospital bed (also known as a therapeutic, geriatric, or medical mattress) is one that is both supportive and comfortable. Patients will be laying on them for extended times, and they need a mattress that has both support and comfort factored into the construction of the bed.
Q: I’ve heard about gel foam mattresses. Are they good for hospital beds?
A: Unfortunately, this isn’t a simple yes or no answer. In general, gel infused foams are designed to sleep 1-2 degrees cooler than typical memory foam. However, whether or not this is a “good” thing in mattresses for your hospital or clinic really depends on your unique situation. Please give us a call to learn more about the different kinds of gel pockets vs. gel beads in foam vs. gel infused foam.
Q: Can I use a regular mattress instead of a hospital mattress?
A: Generally speaking, a regular mattress should not be used for a hospital bed. Many home mattresses do not offer the same support and many can cause pressure on uncomfortable places in the body. In some cases, this can contribute to bed sores. Ouch! Additionally, hospital beds often need a cover that is easily cleanable and fluid proof.
Q: How much does a hospital mattress cost?
A: While mot hospital mattresses range from $500-$1000, we have many less expensive options. We can offer your procurement department or staff much less expensive options for mattresses, because we ship factory direct to you. Due to the volume of mattresses we ship each year, we also are able to pass along significant cost savings in shipping your mattresses to you.
Q: Are hospital mattresses Twin or Twin XL?
A: Hospital mattresses are usually 36” x 80”, which is 2” less in width than a twin or twin xl size. However, we can make them in any size, and even shapes other than a rectangle, if you need something custom.
Q: What size sheets are needed for a hospital mattress?
A: Most places would have you buy a twin xl sheet set, which is 38” x 80”, this size of sheets can end up being too large, resulting in a baggy effect on the mattress. This can also cause the sheets to bunch under your patient, which can also lead to bed sores. To alleviate this, we make your hospital mattress sheets in the exact size of a hospital mattress, which is 36” x 80”, and 6” deep. To see available sheet colors, please *click here*.
Q: How much weight does a hospital mattress support?
A: A standard 1.5 lb 6” polyurethane foam hospital mattress will support up to about 230lbs and are made for one person.

Do you carry mattresses for bariatric hospital beds? There dimensions are 42 x 80 and hold 400 lbs or more. I’m very close to the 400 lb mark so I’d prefer a mattress that is rated for 450lbs or more. I’m also looking for something on the medium to soft range. The mattress that came with the bed is very flimsy & it feels like I am sleeping directly on the steel base. I have small fractures & arthritis throughout my back so it is not a good situation.

I have a regular hospital bed. I am over 400lbs. and want a thicker mattress so I don’t feel like my mattress is being smooshed between the steel bars under me and to eliminate the sag in the center. Can you help?

We would like to put a sleep number mattress on a hospital bed. Will this fit?
Hi Rebecca,
You’d probably need to ask Sleep Number if they could make a bed the size that would fit your frame. But we can make beds to fit any size frame. I’ll have one of our mattress experts reach out to you… alternatively, if you’d like to give us a call with the dimensions of your frame for your hospital bed, we can give you some options that would be good to consider.
