Joerns F026 Pivoting Assist Handle

The Joerns F026 Pivoting Assist Handle is printed on the EasyCare and UltraCare XT 2026 spec accessory rows. Westin Healthcare sells it and fits it on those two frames we set up in Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area.

F026AL is the 2026 Canadian order code. Joerns did not print a weight capacity or a unit weight for this assist device on the sheets we opened. We will not invent those numbers.

Who this assist device is for

This device is for a person already on a Joerns EasyCare or UltraCare XT frame who needs the F026 pivoting assist handle. We have not sourced F026 on WeCare, so we will not fit it on WeCare unless Joerns names it.

Rails and assist handles are a reminder. They are not a restraint. Joerns says to keep the mattress centred so a head or neck cannot catch in a gap.

Which Joerns rail to pick

Joerns prints these as separate accessories. Fit is not the same on every bed.

• F026: EasyCare and UltraCare XT accessory rows

Funding help for a hospital bed in Ontario

Ontario's Assistive Devices Program (ADP) does not fund hospital beds. The provincial ADP page lists hospital beds and mattresses under equipment it does not cover. OHIP does not reimburse this purchase. Ontario Health atHome (310-2222) and March of Dimes Canada can help some low-income applicants. Veterans Affairs Canada, WSIB, ODSP discretionary benefits, and private insurance are the other common routes. Westin Healthcare's staff work with these programs every week. Visit our funding page or call (905) 451-7743 before you buy.

How to buy, delivery and setup

The price is this Joerns assist device. HST is extra. Westin's team delivers across Brampton and the Greater Toronto Area. If it mounts to a Joerns bed we already set up, we fit it on that visit. Call (905) 451-7743 to book.

Visit our Brampton showroom at Unit 7, 15 Fisherman Drive if you want to see the part first. Freight outside the GTA is quoted on the order. Any charge is confirmed before we ship.

Care

Wipe the device with the cleaner Joerns names in the bed manual. Do not use it as a crane or a transfer pole unless Joerns designed that device as a transfer handle. Call (905) 451-7743 if a latch feels loose.

Frequently asked questions

No. Ontario ADP does not fund hospital beds or their rails. See funding.

Which Joerns beds does this fit?
