The P903 by Drive Medical is their offering for the Long-Term Deluxe Homecare Beds with a 600 lb. weight capacity.  A large array of options and adjustability are the primary features for this bed.  Advanced positions available on the P903 include the Auto Contour and Cardiac Comfort Chair. Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg can be achieved with the addition of the optional staff control. A synchronized Hi/Lo control system keeps the bed level for user comfort and positioning. An under bed night light provides safety for attendees administering care at night while allowing the user to remain asleep or resting. There are three frame length options of 80”, 84”, and 88”.  Integrated widths are push button adjustable from 36” to 39” to 42”. 

What Makes This Different

Moving the P903 is made easy with 4, dual 3” heavy duty caster wheel sets.  Also aiding the ease of moving the P903 is the ability to roll this bed at any height.  Many beds require they be locked at a specific height to move them. A color coded dual pedal floor lock system keeps the bed securely locked in place when engaged. 4 DC motors synchronize in a Hi/Lo control system to keep the bed level.  A 10-function backlit handheld pendant control allows independent positioning for the head and foot sections.  The P903 achieves one of the lowest bed height settings for deluxe homecare beds at just 7”.  The low height setting aids to make transfers easier, safer, and diminishes concerns for user falls.   The bed will rise to 30” making attendant assistance much easier and efficient.

Why We Like It

Options and choices are a great appeal of the P903.  The head and footboards are available in 4 wood grain laminate colors allowing the user to achieve the look they prefer as well as providing the best match to their room and home.  The 10-function handheld pendant control provides plenty of height adjusting, body contouring, and position assistance to address every user’s needs while also providing maximum support and comfort.  A staff control can be added to provide more positioning options.  Key additional positional options will include Trendelenburg, Reverse Trendelenburg, and Cardiac Chair. An extended heel lift comes standard for those who need their feet elevated but prefer the lower end of the bed flat.  Adjustable mattress retainers and IV pole holders are also standard features. Deluxe Assist Bars can be ordered as an upgrade for those seeking additional safety.  A battery back-up, bed transporter, and trapeze are additional options for the P903.
