VT: BED RAILS

Our Innovative and Life-Changing Solutions

Our Challenger is an Army Veteran who fractured his neck between C5-C6 in a car accident and does not have use of his legs or full use of his hands.  He is not able to move himself around in his bed without using railings.  He currently uses a homemade railing, which is made of PVC pipe. The challenge is to design and build a functioning bed rail for home use. The bedrails need to be strong enough to allow him to move around in bed; they need to be a designed to allow him to use his wrist to help him roll over (does not have great grasp).  He is able to use his limited mobility and strength in his arms; the rails need to be on both sides of bed; they must be adjustable and collapsible so he can fold it down when not in use; they must be easy to clean; and, they must be visually appealing.

What’s a Rich Text element?

The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.

Static and dynamic content editing

A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!

How to customize formatting for each rich text

Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
