A hospital bed with adjustable height features is a versatile and beneficial tool. An aide can lift or lower the bed to the most convenient height for easy patient transfer, medical procedures, or even assist in getting a patient out of the bed. This problem is very applicable to the user needs around the world in diverse cultures of healthcare. For example, in Asian countries where caregivers tend to be shorter, the height of the bed being lower enhances the handling of patients. Contrastingly, in Western ergonomic hospitals, the adjustable height feature eases physical strain on the staff from caregiving over long hours. Moreover, the height adjustment enhances patient safety by reducing risk of falling while being moved, definitely a must in any healthcare setting world over.
