That will be our next bed in a few years but the issue now is I won't be able to climb the stairs to the master BR. The Med Bed is for a few days on the main floor.

Each hospital floor/ward/service will have a nurse case manager assigned to it. You should be able to get ahold of at least one of these nurses to help you figure out a local vendor. Maybe ask for "discharge planning."
