Product Details

Joerns UltraCare® XT Hospital Bed – Premium Full-Electric Hi-Lo Bed with AdvanceCare Positioning (650 lb Capacity)

The UltraCare XT is the top of Joerns’ homecare bed line—the frame nursing facilities choose when they need the most positioning capability and the highest weight rating in a standard-footprint bed. It shares the EasyCare’s 7" low height and 30" high height, then adds a 650 lb safe working load, UltraLock casters, Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg tilt, a chair position for sitting fully upright in bed, and Joerns’ longest electrical warranty at 5 years. Four Quick Care DC motors move it quietly and quickly.

Looking for a lighter-duty bed? See the Joerns EasyCare 35" x 80" Bed (600 lb) or the Joerns WeCare Split-Frame Bed (450 lb, one-person setup).

The UltraCare XT is a configurable bed. Your purchase includes the full-electric frame with hand pendant and foot-end mattress side stops. Side rails, headboard/footboard panels, and mattress are selected separately so you get exactly what you need.

Best For
Larger users who need a 650 lb capacity on a standard-width bed
Users who spend most of the day in bed and benefit from chair and Trendelenburg positioning
Caregiver-intensive care at home where positioning speed matters
Long-term setups where the 5-year electrical warranty and 15-year frame warranty pay off

What’s Included
Full-electric UltraCare XT frame, 35" x 80" sleep surface, 650 lb safe working load
Hand pendant with AdvanceCare positioning (head, knee, height, Trendelenburg, Reverse Trendelenburg, chair position, auto-contour)
Quick Care DC motors for fast, quiet adjustment
Grid-style sleep deck for airflow under the mattress
Foot-end mattress side stops
Grounded hospital-grade 3-prong plug

Choose Your Mobility
Roll-in-Low – the bed rolls only when fully lowered; at every other height the casters stay locked. The simplest, most secure choice for a bed that stays put.
Roll at Any Height – UltraLock at Foot End – a central UltraLock pedal at the foot of the bed releases all casters at any height, so a caregiver can move or reposition the bed without lowering it first.
Roll at Any Height – UltraLock at Head and Foot – UltraLock pedals at both ends, so the bed can be locked or released from whichever end the caregiver is standing at. The most convenient choice in a room where the bed is moved often.

Side Rail & Assist Options
The UltraCare XT uses its own rail parts—not the same ones as the EasyCare or WeCare.
UltraCare XT half-length assist rails (pair) – the most common homecare choice; assist getting in and out without boxing the user in
Assist handle, 2-position – a short grab bar at the head of the bed for a hand-hold without a rail
UltraCare XT deluxe assist handle – a heavier-duty grab bar with a larger grip area
Side-stop kit – required if you are not fitting side rails, to keep the mattress centered on the frame

Headboard & Footboard Options
Matched 36" laminate head and foot panel sets are available in Classical (flat-top) or Traditional (arched-top) styles, in five finishes: Natural Maple/Sand edge, Spiced Cherry/Brown edge, Cordovan/Brown edge, Bayou Walnut/Brown edge, and Quartered Oak/Sand edge. Panels are not required for the bed to operate. Panels with a built-in AdvanceCare staff control at the foot of the bed are also available by phone.

Frequently Asked Questions

How is the UltraCare XT different from the EasyCare?

The XT has a higher 650 pound capacity, UltraLock casters, Trendelenburg and Reverse Trendelenburg tilt, a chair position for sitting fully upright, and a 5-year electrical warranty. Both share the 7 to 30 inch height range.

What do the three mobility options mean?

Roll-in-Low rolls only when the bed is fully lowered. UltraLock at Foot End adds a central pedal to release all casters at any height. UltraLock at Head and Foot puts pedals at both ends so a caregiver can lock or release from either side.

Do I need side rails on the UltraCare XT?

Not necessarily, but the XT frame ships with foot-end stops only, so if you skip rails you need the Joerns side-stop kit to keep the mattress centered. The XT also uses its own rail parts, not the EasyCare or WeCare rails.

What mattress fits the UltraCare XT?

A standard 36 x 80 inch hospital bed mattress, or 42 x 80 if widened with the extension kit. Joerns PrevaMatt mattresses are rated to 500 pounds; for heavier users, call us about a bariatric mattress.

Can the UltraCare XT be made wider or longer?

Yes. A width-extension kit with 42 inch panels takes it to 42 inches wide, and 4 inch or 4 to 8 inch length-extension kits fit taller users. A battery backup is also available. Call 844-795-2930 for a quote with your bed.

What is the warranty on the UltraCare XT?

Joerns covers the steel frame for 15 years, welds for life, and mechanical and electrical components for 5 years, with 90 days on wearable parts, for the original purchaser.
