BED: In & Out - Knee

Cindy is demonstrating how to get in/out of the bed post knee replacement surgery using adaptive equipment including a bed railstep stool option and leg lifter. A step stool needs to be considered if the bed is too high to safely sit down on and/or the individual does not have enough arm strength to scoot their bottom back on the bed before bringing the legs into the bed.  A bed rail may be an option for those struggling to pull themselves up from a lying position to sitting on the side of the bed.  The leg lifter is a good option for self assist of the surgical leg on/off of the bed.
