Compare quotes on frame strength, panels, side rails, castors, mattress, warranty and service, not on price alone, and budget for delivery, installation, training and servicing as well as the beds.<\/span><span data-ccp-props=\"{}\">\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Setting up or upgrading a nursing home, clinic or old age home means buying beds in numbers, and a poor decision is repeated across every room.
