If you sleep by yourself, in a single bed a double loop handle bed stick or bed rails can be very useful to help you turn, sit and stand up more easily. If the bed stick is not needed on one side of the bed (for example if sleeping with another adult) it can be turned down towards the floor. WARNING: We strongly advise that you do not use a bed stick/loop if you share your bed with a child, as this can cause injury/entrapment.

Products you buy are specifically for you and may not be suitable for other people in your home. For instance, a piece of equipment that you rely on, could be in someone else's way. If the other people in your home cannot use the same product as you, seek further advice. You may be able to obtain products that would suit you and your partner.

If you use a bed stick, please ensure that it is fitted tight up against the mattress and that the clips are fully through the frame.
