A siderail assembly, comprising:
- a first siderail body;
- and
- a second siderail body movably coupled to the first siderail body and configured to rotate between a first position and a second position with respect to the first siderail body about a rotational axis passing through the first siderail body, wherein the second siderail body is positioned above the first siderail body in the first position and below the first siderail body in the second position.
A siderail assembly, comprising:
- a siderail body with an upper perimeter edge located along an upper portion of the siderail body;
- and
- a grip with an upper grip edge located along the upper portion of the grip, the grip being movably coupled to the siderail body and configured to rotate between an first position and a second position with respect to the siderail body about a rotational axis, wherein the upper grip edge is positioned above the upper perimeter edge of the siderail body in the first position and below the upper perimeter edge in the second position.
A person-support apparatus, comprising:
- a frame;
- and
- a siderail movably coupled to the frame and including a siderail body with a grip portion movably coupled thereto, the grip being configured to rotate between a deployed position and a storage position with respect to the siderail body about a rotational axis, the grip defining an uppermost surface of the siderail when the grip is in the first position and an upper portion of the siderail body defining the uppermost surface when the grip is in the second position.
