The head of my hospital bed goes up and down and the foot of the bed goes up and down. Does this mattress bend?

It is flexible, yes. If the angle is too sharp, it may not stay bent without someone on the mattress as it is so lightweight, but the weight of a person should easily contour it to the bed frame. If you let me know at what angles your bed bends, I could test it out for you.

No. This is positioned between the mattress and foundation. A hospital bed has no foundation. Also, this is too wide and does not "bend" so you would not be able to raise up the head of the hospital bed. If you continue with use of the hospital bed get "half side rails". Hospital beds usually come with full length side rails but you can get half rails from the vendor. They are half the length and while not meant to, they can be used to help a person position themselves. They will also be able to be raised and lowered.

I haven't had this problem. But I have mine going from head to toe. Not across the bed. Could it be your mattress causing it? I have a temper pedic mattress.

I bought this for my wife's extra long twin bed frame hospital bed. It has a remote for raising and lowering at both ends. It fits in whichever frame you have. It's just rubber and foam insyead of padding with springs. It's comfy too. Hope this helps. Paul

There are slight marks on the bottom of the mattress, but if u flip it over every couple of months like you normally would, the grooves go away w/o any lasting damage. I don't recommend sitting on the foot of the bed. There isn't proper support and the mattress does sink. Again, no damage to mattress, just uncomfortable. It's altogether a great purchase for the price. It's also pretty lightweight for a metal frame. I love mine!

Yes, definitely ! There is no spring inside, so it will bend following the adjustable bed. I have it in my trailer, underneath the bed there is storage, when I lift the lid of the bed, the mattress also bend following the curve of the platform.

I do not know the answer to that because my mother used hers on her home bed. I do not believe it would be able to slide under the matresse of a hospital bed.

No it is a flat mattress. One would have to obtain a bedframe that would raise or lower.

I am using this mattress on an electric hospital bed. However I am not sure what model my bed. The mattress is about 3 inches wider than the electric bed but since I don't use any railings, the extra width doesn't present a problem. The mattress works fine with raising / lowering the head and / or leg inclines.

No. Make sure you are careful with this bed because mine came apart where it's supposed be welded together.

No. I bought mine because I have a hospital bed. The stretchy material moves with the bed and helps keep them in place when the bed is raised and lowered,

No. And the darn thing moves around a lot. It has an elastic band around the top, not the usual full piece that sets under the mattress and on top of the box spring. Seems I'm always fussing with it. It's very pretty tho.

No. It's thicker than the hospital bed mattress that was supplied with the bed.

My Wife & I have two fully adjustable, foot & head, beds. This product does fill in between the beds but my Wife uses her head adjustment every night which caused the bridge to lift when she reclined the bed head for sleep. I ended up cutting the bridge at the incline location, making the bridge no longer lift from between the beds. It has solved the problem.

No. It bends. I bought it so my 10 month old can crawl in and out of it and not feel trapped.

There are little plastic pieces on the edges near the part where it bends up. They are easy to pull up but, the person has to be able to lean down and lift one side and than go to down to the other side of the bed and pull that one also. Hope this helps. Sorry I cant explain it better.

The mattress is not neatly as firm as my pack n' play. There is no fold in it and it does lay flat. I haven't used it yet though as my 2 month old exclusively sleeps in the incline sleeper attachment right now due to reflux. However her head always falls off the little pillow into the same position and she is developing mild torticollus and a flat spot even though she is only in it about 6 hours through the night. Now that I've noticed I removed the pillow and turn her head the opposite way constantly. I still love this bassinet and recommend it, just make sure your little one changes his position.
