Hand controls have a habit of ending up on the floor, under the mattress or out of the client’s reach. This adaptor holds the hand control on a bed fitted with four part side rails, so it hangs in a fixed, reachable spot on the rail.
Keeping the handset in one known place matters for clients with low vision, limited reach or poor trunk control, because it removes the search that happens before every adjustment. It also stops the lead from being dragged and damaged, which is what usually kills a handset.
It suits homes and facilities standardising bed set ups so every client’s control sits in the same position.
