About This Product
The Vive Health bed rails are designed to secure a bed user and prevent falls. They attach to the bed frame and are used by adults who need bed-side rails for safety.

Industry Context
This recall is not part of a broader industry pattern.
Real-World Impact
The recall presents a clear safety risk for adults and elderly users who rely on bed rails for mobility and safety; a rapid refund and proper disposal are required.
Practical Guidance
How to identify if yours is affected
Check if your Vive Health bed rail model matches LVA2009SLV, LVA2097SLV, or LVA1024.
Verify purchase date to determine recall eligibility (on or before 2023-08-21 for LVA1024; earlier recall includes LVA2009SLV and LVA2097SLV).
