My sister was skeptical about switching mattresses, but the Halsa Bed changed her mind quickly. She’s been sleeping longer and better, and even her mood has improved. The delivery delay was frustrating, but seeing her so happy makes it worth it.
Description
The Permobil Hälsa is an electric home care bed in our homecare beds, built in a standard 36 in width and a Plus size that expands to 48 in. It is an adult bed and is not for pediatric use.
Standard or Plus?
- Standard uses a 36 by 80 in deck, takes full or half side rails, and is rated 375 lb (170 kg).
- Plus expands from 36 to 39, 42 or 48 in, takes half side rails only, and is rated 500 lb (226 kg).
- Full rails fit the standard bed only.
Will it fit the room?
- Platform: 201 by 91 cm (79 by 36 in); Plus expands to 99, 106 or 121 cm (39, 42 or 48 in).
- Overall: 223 by 96 cm (88 by 38 in); the bed weighs about 99 kg (265 lb).
- Height: 24.5 to 64 cm (10 to 25 in).
- It disassembles into four sections.
What does it do?
- A 10-button hand pendant runs the head, foot and height sections, and can move the head and foot together.
- Back to 62 degrees, foot to 30 degrees, with Trendelenburg and reverse Trendelenburg to 10 degrees.
- Three locking casters and one directional locking caster.
- Linak DC motors, mattress retainers, a trapeze receptacle and two IV holder receptacles.
Which rails and mattress are safe?
- Permobil sells the bed alone or as a package with half rails (HSR) or full rails (FSR) and a head and footboard.
- Half rails and the assist bar are interchangeable between the head and foot sections; full rails fit the standard bed only.
- Lock raised rails, do not use them to restrain a person or to help turning, and keep the head-end half rails up when the bed is moved.
- A care team decides whether rails are used. Assess the rail and mattress gaps, because a gap can entrap.
- See bed rails, medical mattresses and the mattress size guide.
Which version should I choose?
We confirm the size and rail package before you order.
- Choose standard or Plus, then bed only, half rails (HSR) or full rails (FSR), and natural or wine boards.
- Battery backup, a trapeze and the mattress are separate. Wine boards come in the 36 in width only.

Frequently asked questions
Do full-length rails fit every Hälsa?
No. Full rails fit the standard bed only, and a Plus bed takes half rails.
Can rails be used to help a turn?
No. Do not use rails to restrain a person or to help turning, and lock every raised rail.
Should I buy or rent?
Buy when the need is long, and use hospital bed rental for a short recovery.
