PrimeCare P503 Low Hospital Bed is a built for home care, long-term care, and extended recovery where positioning and caregiver access matter. With three DC motors, an eight-function handheld pendant, and auto contour, it supports head and knee elevation and a true vertical lift that keeps the frame level through height changes. The low-height range of 7.8 inches to 30 inches supports safer bed ingress and egress, and the 450-pound weight capacity supports a wide range of users.
Drive Medical designs the frame with welded steel construction, sealed bearings for quieter movement, and eight heavy-duty casters, including locking wheels for stability. A fixed wall bumper helps protect room surfaces, and mattress retention loops help reduce mattress shifting during repositioning. The 80-inch sleep deck supports users up to 6 feet 6 inches tall.
Bundle selections allow the PrimeCare P503 Low Hospital Bed to be configured with pressure redistribution mattresses, assist rails, and bedroom-style headboards and footboards. Common add-ons include an embedded staff control with lockout, a width extension kit that expands to 42 inches, a battery backup, and a trapeze to support repositioning and transfers.
