hospital beds

Ward sleeping spots

Hospital beds are beds designed for patients in medical facilities, with adjustable positions, side rails, and wheels for mobility.

The term often serves as a measure of healthcare capacity: The region has only 200 hospital beds per 100,000 people.

During crises, running out of hospital beds signals an overwhelmed system.
