Question
My daughter sleeps in waterbed. She is totally disabled and now her lung doctor said she needs hospital bed to sleep in a 30 degree angle so has to have bed that goes up and down.Does this mattress raise up and down with electric bed didn't know with water in it

Answer

Dear Ms. Smith:

This mattress would not work for an inclined bed.  Gel Mattress Overlay  would be a better, but not an ideal solution.  For individuals confined to bed Low Air Loss Alternating Pressure Mattress is the best option.  The air filled cushions provide not only comfort, but reduce the presence of pressure/ bed sores by promoting blood circulation.

Question
I see you have a bariatric shower chair with large casters. My wife is bed bound and we get her up out of bed with a hoyer lift. She weighs 350. We are in need of a shower chair somewhat like the one you have advertised. The one we were looking at is Item# NSO057CCSIPU. My wife is covered under Blue Cross Blus Shield insurance through COBRA from where I used to work. Do you deal with private insurances for the cost of such items? Also, I notice that the chair is 28 wide, is that the inside or outside dimensions? that is pretty important because of narrow doors.

Answer
We unfortunately do not handle any type of insurance and accept payment by credit card, check or paypal only.  We do have alternate options which may be more affordable if you are interested.  The width reflected is the overall width.
