Choosing a Hospital Bed That Suits Your Needs at Home

Posted on February 9, 2020 by Homepro Blogger

A hospital bed is an excellent investment for the home when a person has a respiratory or circulatory condition or is unable to move and function as they generally need. All of these circumstances require special positioning when sleeping or resting. If a person has problems getting up and down from a flat position, this type of bed can offer support and much more.

Having a hospital bed at home will help care givers as well. It can be helpful in situations such as cleaning and treating wounds in a flat position, changing incontinence products, or finding a unique position to alleviate pressure on various areas of the body.

How to Compare Your Options

Both a full and a semi-electric hospital bed can be a good choice depending on the situation. The biggest difference is in the amount of control you have and cost. Beds like the Invacare full electric hospital bed can move into more positions with the flip of a switch or a button. A semi-electric hospital bed does not offer as many motorized positioning options but it has a lower cost than other full styles.

Which one should you buy? The more support you need in getting up or moving around in the bed, the more important it is to choose a fully functional bed. This alleviates a lot of the lifting and positioning for those who are unable to move at all. At Homepro Medical we carry everything from classic semi-electric and full-electric hospital beds to premium long-term care hospital beds.

Pride Mobility Scooters – Cater to Your Specific Needs

Posted on January 20, 2020 by Homepro Blogger

The Pride Mobility brand is one of the most well-recognized brands in the mobility scooter market. Pride Mobility Scooters are designed to be very reliable, easy to use, and durable enough to last for years. Because of the great variety and quality in each Pride Mobility scooter, it is not always easy to know which one is the best fit for your unique needs.

Know the Style That Fits Your Needs

There are a few key questions to ask yourself about what you want in a Pride Mobility Scooter to determine which one is right for your needs. First, consider how you plan to use it. Do you plan to take it outside? Do you want to be able to take it down the street? Do you plan to keep it indoors? This can determine the size of the motor, the durability of the design, and the battery size necessary.

Also, consider how fast you want the power scooter to go. Faster means getting places sooner, but it can also be a bit more difficult to control. You may also find that a four-wheel scooter can help to give you a bit more control behind the wheel over a three-wheel scooter.

Also, consider the unique features of the scooter. For example, the Jazzy Zero Turn is a four-wheel scooter with three-wheel turning radius. You can navigate tight corners and small spaces effortlessly with a 38″ turning radius. We also have a Go-Go folding scooter for a more compact travel scooter. You may also benefit from a long-term warranty and easy maneuverability controls.
