Hello Marlene, we are renting a full rails hospital bed from Gould's for my paraplegic elderly mom. Medicare only covered a "semi-electric" style, which only has raised head ability. We paid the extra for full electric bed (in order to raise legs, + who wants to do a hand crank every time you are needing to raise and lower it during personal care?). We added a gel overlay for improved skin wound protection. Btw, I bought stretchy cotton knit fitted sheets for it online. Hope this helps! Gould's has very nice customer svc from sale through delivery, setup and training.
I do believe they rent hospital beds , check out their web site or give them a call .
