Beds & Pressure Care - Supportive & Comfortable Pressure Care

A profiling bed allows several sections, such as the head, knee and foot, to be raised or lowered independently, making it easier to find a comfortable position or sit up without help. A standard adjustable bed usually offers fewer adjustment points, typically just head and foot height.

Most pressure relief mattresses are made to fit standard UK bed sizes (single, small double, double, king), so they'll generally fit a standard bed frame. It's worth checking the mattress dimensions against your frame before ordering, especially if your bed is a non-standard size.

If you have a disability or a long-term illness, you may qualify for VAT relief on eligible beds and pressure care products. This usually involves completing a simple eligibility declaration confirming your condition, rather than providing medical proof, and the VAT is removed at the point of sale.

The right mattress depends on your level of mobility and pressure risk. Those who can reposition themselves often suit a static foam mattress, while people who spend most of the day or night in bed with limited movement may need a dynamic, alternating air mattress for greater pressure relief. A district nurse or occupational therapist can advise on your specific risk level.

Yes. Pressure care equipment, including profiling beds and pressure relief mattresses, is widely used at home and not limited to hospitals or care homes. It's designed to support comfort, independence and skin health wherever someone needs it.
