Vive Bed Ladder Assist - Pull Up Assist Device with Handle Strap - Rope Ladder Caddie Helper - Sitting, Sit Up Hoist for Elderly, Senior, Injury Recovery Patient, Pregnant, Handicap - Padded Hand Grip

As described in the listing, the item Bed Ladder Assist by Vive is what I was looking for. The driver arrived on time, quickly, and in good condition. Although the product was packaged in a padded envelope, as all the pieces are soft, there was little to no risk of damage to the product unless the package was opened with a box opener. As soon as I gave it to him, my husband attached it to his bed. Fixing it to the bed has proven to be a challenge. How do you attach the ends of the 4 poster bed if you do not have a 4 poster bed frame? You will need to lift up the mattress to tie the strap to the frame if you have only a bed It becomes difficult to handle bed covers, especially if, like him, you have an electric blanket. need to lift the cover and mattress up and let them fall over the strap in order to attach it to the frame. The average mattress these days is 18 inches by 26 inches The depth is 20" and the weight is The situation was difficult for him to handle. There is a problem in his use of this device because the strap that is mounted on the bed base is intended to assist in sitting straight up in bed. He has difficulty pulling himself straight up with this strap. It is also necessary that your back is flexible. I gave it only 4 stars because he cannot use it the way it was intended because of his physical limitations.

Two of these were actually purchased for my mother who just came home from an eighteen day hospital stay. As she has still not returned to normal, I was looking for a way to help her turn over in bed and roll to her right side when she gets on and off the bedpan or sponge bathes. On the left side of her bed she has a rail, but on the right side there is nothing to grab. She sleeps with my father in a king size bed. Thanks to this bed ladder, I've had so much more room. It is within her reach when he gets out of bed in the morning, and it is tucked away under the bed during the evening. As a caregiver, I have found that the one at her feet has proved to be a great help to her, but the one on the side is much more convenient. Having her close to me means I don't have to push her or pull her too hard. There is no need for me to inform my father of tasks that she would rather he not know about. would be better off marketing this device as a sit-up assist or roll-over assist tool.

There is no way I can get in and I cannot log in A person is pulled out of bed unassisted. The constant need to ask my family, who do so much for me even without being asked, to stop what they are doing every time I need to get up or down was emotionally draining. This little gadget, which simply slides onto the footboard (or frame if needed) means that I am now able to take care of things on my own about half the time. In addition to being helpful physically, it has also proved to be helpful emotionally. MY FAMILY ALSO GAIN A BIT OF RESPITE FROM THAT. They know that if I needed support during an emergency and no one was nearby, this assistance would allow me to get up on my own and if I needed more help, I could find it. Let's get to safety. The only thing I wish was that these could be hung from the ceiling in all the rooms!.

My mother, for whom I purchased it, did not find it useful, but I did try it myself and found it did the trick, but for an elderly person without a great deal of strength it is may not work. As of now, it is still attached to her bed, and I am using it as an exercise tool to get her arms stronger through little by little pulling. I'm not giving up yet, but I think it won't be used for what it is intended for if I do build up the strength. The handles are too far apart for elderly people, but I'm not giving up now. general, I think it is a good product. And if it is only used for exercise, I am fine with that. Whenever I need it, I will have it close at hand!.

It works well, is inexpensive and easy to use. It only need to be worn for two or three days after my hospital stay until I was able to get up on my own. Even though I used it only a few times, it was still worth the price. My one star was deducted because I think 1-2 more handles closer together in the same area would be perfect, even if it meant the price went up by a dollar or two.

The Parkinson's Disease that my husband has makes it hard for him to sit up in bed and move his body to one side to get out of bed. As a result, it helps him quite a bit by keeping him upright, then the handles allow him to move sideways onto the edge with his feet. I appreciate the good tool you have provided!.

Can you help me for a long time? As time goes on, more details will emerge. It has been very useful from the beginning. I mounted it on the center line of the tempurpedic adjustable bed using the metal rail that retains the foot of the mattress, and I have found that it is a very useful tool. I sit up and get out of bed after repositioning myself, after sitting up, and after (I have lost a lot of weight since my abdominal surgery, after undergoing cancer treatment It is very difficult for me to maintain my core strength. 2) It will also prove to be a really useful tool in rescue situations My head hit the table as I was drifting to the edge of the bed while I was asleep and I was able to stop myself from falling. Getting out of bed took me another 20 minutes to figure out how to lever myself upright. This ladder and the rails I bought were the result of my experience. Once the rails go up, I will let you know There was no backup plan for this This is a one-person job with large, immediate benefits. While that is the case, I still have my doubts about how long this instrument will last. The assembly of the middle rung on my copy introduces two unnecessary points of failure the top rung and the bottom rung. A main ring of fabric is cut on each side, and the top rung is attached where it is cut, as well as a loop to hold the top It would be easier for the çenter rung to be joined the same way the bottom rung is, by leaving the webbing in tact and attaching to it as it passes, so there would not need to be In addition, the ladder has probably received fewer reviews reporting early failure. As time goes by, I will keep an eye out for fabric ladders that are not made from metal. If an attachment to a bed is made which offers similar functionality, there could be a bunk bed or treehouse ladder.

When I was having trouble getting into bed I purchased this ladder. This is designed for people who are sitting up in bed and is meant to attach at the foot of the bed frame, but I was able to attach it so that I could use it for my full-size memory foam mattress on the opposite side of the bed. For the past couple of weeks, I have had this in a bed and it does assist in positioning myself while sleeping. Please take note of the following It would be better if instructions were more detailed, especially on how to use the 'buckle. '.
