Extension Kit for Euro Bed (HB3604)
An extension kit that lengthens the Euro bed to suit a taller person, rather than replacing the bed.
Why this one
Fits a taller person
Lengthens the frame and mattress platform so a taller person is not cramped or pressing against the foot board.
Protects the ankles
Feet held against a board for hours can shorten at the ankle over time, making standing flat harder.
Better sleep and pressure care
A cramped person slides and shifts looking for room, which disturbs sleep and works against pressure care.
Extend, do not replace
Extends the existing bed rather than replacing it, keeping the same controls, rails and mattress type.
Re-check mattress and rails
The mattress must suit the new length, and any fitted rails need re-checking once the bed is longer.
Check the room
Check the room has the extra floor length, and that a carer can still get around the foot end.
About this product
An extension kit for the Euro bed, HB3604. It lengthens the bed frame and mattress platform to suit a taller person.
Why bed length matters
A standard hospital bed is sized for an average adult. A taller person in a bed that is too short ends up with their feet against the foot board or hanging off the end.
That is not just uncomfortable. Feet pressed against a board are held in a fixed position for hours, which over time can lead to shortening at the ankle and difficulty getting the foot flat when standing. Feet hanging off the end are unsupported and get caught in bedding.
A person who is cramped also tends to slide down and shift about looking for room, which disturbs sleep and works against pressure care.
Extend rather than replace
The alternative to an extension kit is a longer bed, which means a second delivery, a second installation, and disposing of a bed that is otherwise perfectly good.
Extending the existing frame keeps everything else the same: the same controls, the same rails, the same mattress type.
What else changes
Lengthening the bed means the mattress must suit the new length, and any fitted rails need re-checking. Rail coverage relative to the sleeping surface changes when the bed gets longer, and gaps must still be correct.
Check the room too. An extended bed needs the extra floor length, and access around the foot end matters for a carer.
