An occupant transfer system comprising a bed including a mattress or other sleep support structure mounted on an endless belt of flexible material, the belt extending in a loop over a plurality of rotatable drive members extending longitudinally of the bed; drive means adapted to cause rotation of the belt so that the sleep support structure moves laterally across the bed to cause an occupant located on the sleep support structure to be moved laterally across the bed in use; the foot portion being rigidly supported by a foot frame and extending horizontally from the foot frame; the head portion being connected to the foot portion by one or more hinges; the head portion including one or more extensible hinged linkages connected to the head frame; wherein the head frame includes a lifting mechanism movable between lower and upper positions so that the head portion may be reversibly raised to an upwardly inclined position relative to the foot portion.
