Questions about beds and mattresses answered & stories told.

In most cases, standard home hospital beds rely on electricity to function, so they may not be adjustable during a power failure. However, there are some specialized hospital beds that come with battery backups or manual override systems, allowing limited adjustability even when the power is out.

If you have a home hospital bed and are concerned about power outages, it is advisable to check the bed's specifications and user manual. The manual should provide information on whether the bed has any backup options or manual override features. If there is no information available or if you are unsure, it's best to reach out to the manufacturer or supplier of the bed for specific guidance. They can provide you with the most accurate information regarding the capabilities of your particular bed model.
