Description
SPAN Bed Side Rails are frame-mounted assist handles designed to provide stable leverage during bed entry, exit and repositioning. Their handholds can help users turn, roll, sit up or pivot toward the edge of the mattress.
Unlike a full-length barrier, a side assist rail is intended primarily as a support point. Its more open configuration helps preserve access to the bed while providing a secure location for the user to grasp.
Three assist rail configurations are available to accommodate different support needs and care routines.
