American Spirit Expandable Width Long Term Care Bed

SKU: SLB48-X Category: Brand:

The American Spirit Expandable Width Bed is one of the most versatile frames in the senior care industry. Featuring a unique dual-expansion system, this bed can be adjusted in both width and length to accommodate residents of all sizes—from standard to bariatric—without needing any extra tools. It is the ultimate “universal” bed for facilities that want a single frame capable of meeting multiple patient needs.


Key Features & Benefits

  • Tool-Less Width Expansion: Effortlessly adjust the sleeping surface between 36″, 42″, and 48″ widths. This allows the bed to function as a standard bed or a bariatric bed in seconds, locking securely into place.

  • Integrated Length Extension: The bed deck can be extended from 80″ to 88″ in length, providing a comfortable fit for taller residents and preventing “footboard crowding.”

  • Precision Linak Engineering: Powered by world-class Linak actuators and controls, ensuring smooth, whisper-quiet adjustments for head, foot, and overall height.

  • True Vertical Lift: The frame moves straight up and down, protecting your facility walls from damage and scuffs while saving valuable floor space.

  • Auto-Contour Function: Synchronized head and knee movement reduces patient shear and friction, making it easier for residents to stay positioned comfortably.

  • Caregiver Friendly: Features quick-release head and footboards for emergency access, retractable bumper guards, and built-in IV pole sockets on all four corners.
