Bedding for the Aged

As we age it can get a little bit harder to move about. That’s why they invented bedding for the aged.

When we think of elderly bedding typically we think of those big industrial hospital beds. There is much more to them than that!

There is an adjustable bed to fit any home.

The first thing to look at is the construction of the bed. Better quality beds will have multiple adjustment points.

This means the feet and the head can both be independently raised and lowered to find the perfect sleep position.

Another thing to look for in bedding construction is the type of mattress.

A normal coil mattress will bunch and bind where it adjusts. Because of this a foam mattress is a good alternative. The flexibility of foam will provide a great nights sleep.

Another option is to go with an air mattress. One of the biggest benefits of an air mattress is you can adjust the firmness of the mattress. You’ll get the perfect level of comfort for you.

Benefits of an adjustable bed

An adjustable bed can improve your circulation. With just the flick of a switch you can elevate your feet above your heart.

If you snore at night or have apnea then you can raise your head up. This can help keep your airway open and freely breathing all night long.
