Since we're all in agreement on the bed (there were no negative comments from anyone,so I'm assuming that's the case), I have ordered one of those thick viscose pads so the comfort factor of a hospital bed won't be an issue. It will take a few days to receive it and I will let everyone know once the delivery date is confirmed. I thought I wouldn't order the bed delivery until we're sure of the pad delivery since the bed by itself might not be acceptable to Mom.
(Please, please, please do not discard ANY of the packing materials for the pad. If for some reason Mom won't accept the bed, we can return the pad - but only if we send it back with ALL the related packing materials within 90 days. Thanks!)
Dr. Pugh has written the order so there won't be a charge for the bed or the delivery/set-up (they're checking on Medicare coverage for the pad). As noted earlier, we will have to move Mom's bed out of her room prior to delivery; the delivery guys aren't allowed to move our furniture. Hopefully, all of this will come together this week or early next. Not sure where to put Mom's current bed. I don't think it will fit in the computer room (we had talked about moving that set up to another location). Can always go downstairs. Any other ideas for arranging the furniture?
Here is the contact person for the bed. I am going to tell her that we want the bed and will let her know which day is best to schedule delivery.

I can help move the bed. Lets put it downstairs. No problem. Just let me know when.
If the bed arrives before it can be moved downstairs, I suggest storing it in the living room for the time being only.
