A siderail assembly for a person support apparatus comprises a siderail body, a grip portion, and a power communication device. The siderail body includes a front surface, a back surface, and a side surface extending between the front surface and the back surface. The side surface defines a perimeter of the siderail body. The grip portion includes a siderail opening through a portion of the siderail body. The grip opening has an upper grip opening portion that cooperates with the side surface to define a grip. The power communication device is configured to communicate power wirelessly to a device in communication therewith.

A user module for a patient support is provided. The user module is coupled to a patient support barrier, such as a siderail or a footboard.

A detachable bed handle providing support and mobility assistance for a user on a bed or similar furniture is disclosed. The detachable bed handle may couple with a base portion that can be mounted on a bed frame or bed base, or be positioned between a mattress and a box spring or bed base. The bed may be an adjustable (articulating) bed. The bed handle may have a gripping member that is shaped so as to avoid areas of potential entrapment of a user's body between the bed handle and the bed. Entrapment areas can be avoided both when the bed is in a nonarticulated state and when the bed is in an articulated state.

Bed restraining apparatus is provided including at least one bed rail protective portion for at least partly covering a surface of a bed rail in use, and at least one bed restraining portion for location over at least part of a bed in use, so as to be located between opposing sides of a bed in use and/or so as to be located between bed rails on opposing sides of a bed in use. Thee at least one bed rail protective portion is arranged so as to at least partly cover an inwardly facing side wall or side wall frame member of the bed rail in use.

According to an embodiment, a structure is detachably attached to a bed apparatus. The bed apparatus includes a holder and a first frame that includes a portion extending in a first direction. The structure includes: a first portion of a columnar shape extending in a second direction that intersects the first direction; and a second portion continuous to the first portion and including a portion extending in a third direction that intersects the second direction. The first portion is inserted in the holder so that the holder holds the structure. When the structure is attached to the bed apparatus, an angle between the first direction and the third direction is variable. The structure that can facilitate aid of bed departure can be provided.
