Bed Rope Ladder Tiger Tail
This product is used instead of the overhead monkey bar to help patients to sit up in bed. The pulling from the foot of the bed can be better for the patient as opposed to pulling from up above.
To sit up, the patient simply pulls on the loops. If the patient cannot grip the loop, they can try placing their wrist or forearm through a loop to pull themselves up.
To fit, simply lay the Bed Ladder Strap on the bed with the pulling loop placed so the patient can easily reach it.
The foot end is then wrapped around the end of the bed frame two or three times and then 'lassoed' in position. If it is difficult to wrap around the bed frame, the strap can be wrapped around one of the bed legs and left slightly diagonally on the bed.
The strong elastic strap sewn on to the Bed Ladder Strap should be fastened around the side of the bed frame, or tucked under the mattress. This will enable the patient to retrieve the Strap if it is dislodged from the bed.
