Need cake building ideas with a hospital theme

My wife is entering a Hospital Cake Competition - the theme being the "most important piece of equipment" in a hospital.

She's going for a hospital bed utilising a narrow cake rack. The 'mattress' will be a cake - and a patient may be involved.

I'm looking for ideas on making legs and wheels.

Any thoughts anyone?

Cheers on a rainy Saturday.

Love it! Impressed with the bed and the marzipan! That looks brilliant, Do you get to sample it afterwards?

I sampled the prototype bed @Dave-1 . Vanilla. Not bad.

 

Here are some of the competitors. The marzipan molding is amazing...

Re: Cake ideas.

Congratulations on the podium finish. I would've picked yours but like @Dave-1 I might be a bit biased.

I hope everyone enjoyed the competition and the tasting afterwards was worth the effort.
