Alterra Maxx Full Electric Hospital Bed by Medline

The Alterra Maxx Full Electric Hospital Bed from Medline represents an excellent addition to nursing homes, long-term care facilities, and hospitals alike because it can accommodate both standard and bariatric patients in comfort, weighing up to 600 lbs.

The Alterra Maxx Full Electric Hospital Bed features built-in length and width extenders that allow on-the-spot adjustments: the length is extended from 80 to 88 inches, while the width is extended from 36 to 42 inches. The innovation feature gives the bed the capability to personalize each patient's experience. The height of the bed can be adjusted between 7.25 and 30.25 inches. In the low position, the Alterra Maxx is very efficient in fall reduction and prevention for patients. The bed, through its height setting, is designed to actively help minimize the discomfort, strain, and fatigue experienced by caregivers. Ultra-convenient under-bed LED lights enhance nighttime visibility to assist with entries and exits from bed and reduce patient falls.

All bed functions are controlled through an easy-to-use, handheld pendant. The Alterra Maxx Full Electric Hospital Bed can support head and foot adjustments, Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg positioning, and "auto mode," which creates a comfortable automatic contour. Even in the case of a power outage, the Alterra Maxx with its internal backup battery keeps the bed and its control pendant fully functional to maintain patient safety. When the Alterra Maxx does need maintenance, its integrated prop stand raises the head of the bed frame allowing easy access to the motor.
