What is claimed is: 1. A patient support apparatus comprising a patient support frame, a mattress positioned on the patient support frame, the mattress defining a patient rest surface, a plurality of casters, and a powered transport device including at least one wheel and a motor, the powered transport device being positioned to lift at least a portion of the patient support frame and power movement of the patient support frame along the floor wherein the wheel of the powered transport device is configured to move between first and second positions relative to the patient support frame, the portion of the patient support frame being at a first height above a floor when the wheel is in the first position, the portion of the patient support frame being at a second height when the wheel is in the second position, the second height being greater than the first height. 2. The patient support apparatus of claim 1, wherein the plurality of casters includes at least four casters that are in contact with the floor when the wheel is in the first position. 3. The patient support apparatus of claim 1, wherein movement of the powered transport device between the first and second positions is provided by manual power. 4. The patient support apparatus of claim 1, wherein the wheel is in contact with the floor when the wheel is in the first and second positions. 5. The patient support apparatus of claim 1, wherein the powered transport device is spaced apart from the patient support frame when the wheel is in the second position. 6. The patient support apparatus of claim 1, wherein the patient support frame applies at least 400 Newtons force to the powered transport device. 7. A patient support apparatus comprising a patient support including a patient support frame, a mattress positioned on the patient support frame, a first pair of casters, and a second pair of casters longitudinally spaced apart from the first pair of casters, the patient support having a longitudinal center of gravity and a longitudinal midpoint positioned equidistant between head and foot ends of the patient support, and a powered transport device configured to power movement of the patient support along the floor, the powered transport device including a wheel positioned to engage the floor to move the patient support relative to the floor and a motor to power movement of the wheel, the wheel being positioned longitudinally closer to the longitudinal midpoint of the patient support than to the first pair of casters, and the wheel being longitudinally spaced apart from the longitudinal center of gravity of the patient support wherein the powered transport apparatus is configured to lift a portion of the patient support frame from a first height relative to the floor to a second height relative to the floor, the second height being greater than the first height. 8. A patient support apparatus comprising a patient support including a patient support frame, a mattress positioned on the patient support frame, a first pair of casters, and a second pair of casters longitudinally spaced apart from the first pair of casters, the patient support having a longitudinal center of gravity and a longitudinal midpoint positioned equidistant between head and foot ends of the patient support a powered transport device configured to power movement of the patient support along the floor, the powered transport device including a wheel positioned to engage the floor to move the patient support relative to the floor and a motor to power movement of the wheel, the wheel being positioned longitudinally closer to the longitudinal midpoint of the patient support than to the first pair of casters, and the wheel being longitudinally spaced apart from the longitudinal center of gravity of the patient support, and a care cart dockable with the patient support, the care cart being configured to support patient care equipment, the wheel of the powered transport device being positioned approximate at the combined longitudinal center of gravity of patient support and care cart. 9. The patient support apparatus of claim 7, wherein the combined longitudinal center of gravity of the powered transport device and the patient support is positioned between the wheel of the powered transport device and the head end of the patient support. 10. The patient support apparatus of claim 7, wherein the first pair of casters and the second pair of casters cooperate to define a caster footprint, and the wheel is positioned within the caster footprint. 11. A patient support apparatus comprising a patient support including a patient support frame, a mattress positioned on the patient support frame, a plurality of casters, and a longitudinal center of gravity, a pair of vertically extending handles positioned adjacent to an end of the patient support to facilitate movement of the patient support, a wheel positioned to engage the floor at a position longitudinally between the pair of vertically extending handles and the longitudinal center of gravity of the patient support, a transport frame configured to couple the wheel to the patient support, the transport frame being coupled to the patient support frame at a location longitudinally spaced-apart from the plurality of casters, and a motor coupled to the wheel to power rotation of the wheel. 12. The patient support of claim 11, wherein the vertically extending handles include inwardly extending handle portions. 13. The patient support of claim 11, wherein the vertically extending handles are positioned adjacent a head end of the patient support. 14. The patient support of claim 11, further comprising a control in communication with the motor to control the velocity of the motor. 15. The patient support of claim 16, wherein the control is positioned laterally between the vertical handles. 16. The patient support of claim 16, further comprising a controller circuit board electrically coupled to the control to receive an input signal therefrom and electrically coupled to the motor to send an output signal to the motor based on the input signal from the control. 17. The patient support of claim 11, further comprising a cord to provide electric power for the motor and a cord holder defining a recess to receive the cord during storage. 18. The patient support of claim 17, wherein the cord holder is coupled to at least one of the handles.
