Alterra Maxx Long-Term Care Beds

The Alterra Maxx line from Medline is built for the realities of long-term care and hospital environments, where beds are in constant use and both resident safety and staff efficiency matter around the clock. This heavy-duty platform combines a wide sleep surface with a robust frame designed to hold up under years of daily transfers, repositioning, and cleaning.

The centerpiece of this collection is the Medline Alterra Maxx Long-Term Care Hospital Bed (FCEALTMAXX), measuring 91 by 36 inches with a 600 lb. weight capacity. That expanded capacity makes it a practical choice for bariatric care and for facilities that need dependable beds capable of accommodating a broad range of residents without stocking separate specialty frames. The generous surface length and width give taller residents room and give caregivers the working space they need at the bedside.

Facilities evaluating long-term care beds typically weigh three things: how low the deck goes to reduce fall risk, how easily the height adjusts for safe transfers and care, and how the bed integrates with the mattresses and side rails already in use. The Alterra Maxx is engineered around those priorities, offering height adjustability that supports both ergonomic caregiving and floor-level fall prevention, along with construction that stands up to institutional cleaning protocols.

When specifying a bed for a skilled nursing floor, rehab unit, or assisted living community, pairing the frame with the right support surface is essential. Explore compatible Mattresses to match the deck dimensions, and review Bed Safety Rails to complete a safe, code-conscious sleep system.
