Dear Katherine I understand you are on holiday this week –I hope you are having a good time and fine weather! I just wanted to let you know that my wife’s bed was delivered yesterday, not only that, but the low foot board was also available. We are both delighted with the help you gave us with this venture into the unknown and with the bed itself. I suspected the worse with this. My wife is not the best at getting up in the morning and today she slept on until quite late - a testament to how much she enjoyed her new bed and the comfort she experienced. Thank you very much for your excellent service. With best wishes, - Brian, UK 20/5/2009

Split / assist side rails can mean the difference between needing assistance getting into or out of bed without help or requiring the help of a carer. Split / assist side rails make transferring from a wheelchair to the bed much easier. Being part of the bed and constructed from hardwood and metal, they are built to remain stable and offer a more rigid & secure feel than a typical bed leaver or bed rail which slides under the mattress. And when not in use, they can be folded away.
