The service infrastructure separates SonderCare from alternatives. Professional installation across North America means every bed is assembled by trained technicians who understand medical equipment requirements. Guaranteed delivery windows with expedited and rush options provide certainty during urgent transitions, while Flexabed's long lead times and limited installation coverage create uncertainty when families need reliability most.

Advanced therapeutic positioning transforms daily care routines. Trendelenburg capability supports circulation and respiratory management, zero gravity positioning reduces pressure points and enhances comfort, and comfort chair positions facilitate safe transfers and social engagement. These features, available across most SonderCare models, address clinical needs that standard adjustable beds cannot accommodate.

For families managing progressive conditions, fall risk, or complex medical protocols, SonderCare provides the clinical capability, service reliability, and aesthetic quality that transforms a house into a healing home. The investment in certified medical equipment with professional support delivers peace of mind that residential furniture cannot match.
