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.
In general, gel infused foams are designed to sleep 1 to 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.
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. Additionally, hospital beds often need a cover that is easily cleanable and fluid proof.
While most hospital mattresses range from $500 to $1000, Mattress Insider specializes in making less expensive, though still high quality, options.
Hospital mattresses are usually 36” x 80”, which is 2” less in width than a Twin or Twin XL size. However, Mattress Insider can make a hospital bed in any size or shape.
Most places would have you buy a Twin XL sheet set, which is 38” x 80”. But this size can end up being too large, potentially leading to bed sores. Mattress Insider creates high quality hospital bed sheets in the exact size of a hospital mattress.
A standard 1.5 lb, 6” polyurethane foam hospital mattress will support up to about 230 lbs.
