The Stander BedCane is a one-of-a-kind bedside safety handle that allows its users to transfer in and out of bed safely. The ergonomic, non-slip handle provides a low profile, comfortable grip and is adjustable in height for maximum comfort. The wooden platform provides a strong and steady hold for safety and peace of mind. The BedCane comes with a bonus organizer pouch to help keep valuables close by during the night. The BedCane also comes with a safety strap that attaches to the bed frame for additional stability. It's perfect for most traditional home beds; not intended for use on adjustable beds.
Medical studies find that bed rails "have a range of functions including safety in transit, comfort and security, a physical barrier and reminder of the bed perimeters, and supporting mobility for turning and repositioning and transferring in/out of the bed.... Some rail designs resolve the conflict between preventing falls and limiting mobility by providing 1/2 length (or shorter) rails which can be used to assist lying-sitting-standing and transferring in/out of the bed."1

Product Installation
Installation Instructions

- Insert the handle into the base bracket. Tighten the short bolt with an Allen wrench.
- Tighten the two long bolts, removing any wobble between the handle and the base bracket.
- Loop the strap around the opposite bed frame and buckle to secure the device to the bed.
- Slide the bedrail against the side of the mattress, ensuring that no space exists between the handle and the side of the mattress.
- Tighten the strap to secure the assist device against the side of the mattress.
- Relace the mattress on top of the assist device support and the box springs.
