Bedroom Aids

Match the Bedroom Aid to the Task

Bedroom aids can support several different needs, so it helps to start with the task that has become difficult. Some people need help moving in and out of bed, while others need better comfort, easier positioning, safer transfers, or a more supportive setup for longer-term care.

Different bedroom aids solve different problems:

• Bed sticks and bed transfer aids can support safer movement from lying to sitting
• Leg lifters can help users move their legs into position
• Lifting poles can provide extra support when repositioning
• Overbed tables can make eating, reading or daily tasks easier from bed
• Support pillows and mattresses can improve comfort and positioning
• Adjustable beds and care beds can help with more regular or longer-term support needs

If the main issue is moving in or out of bed, transfer aids, bed sticks, leg lifters and lifting poles are useful products to compare. If comfort, pressure or sleep position is the bigger concern, supportive mattresses, pillows or adjustable beds may be more suitable.

For larger bedroom equipment, check room space, access, delivery and setup before ordering. Modern Mobility can also help with advice on larger items such as adjustable beds, care beds and mattresses,
including whether a product may need engineer delivery or demonstration.

For higher-value bedroom products, finance may be available on eligible orders. Visiting a local Modern Mobility store can also be useful if you want to compare larger support options before buying.

You may also find it useful to browse bed aids, adjustable beds, supportive mattresses, care beds, overbed and lap tables, dressing aids, moving and handling aids, delivery information, VAT relief, mobility finance or service and repairs.
