Getting in and out of bed can be made easier for anyone with limited mobility or disabled users with the use of a bed hoist or bed ladder. A lightweight rope bed ladder attaches to the bottom of the bed and allows the user to pull themselves up from a lying position. For a more heavy-duty bed aid, an over-bed pole hoist can help with transferring users from the bed into a seated position or onto a mobility aid such as a wheelchair. These simple solutions can make getting in and out of bed easier and help maintain independence in the bedroom.
