Bed Mobility Exercise

Bed Mobility Exercise (moving from one bed position to another) includes rolling, scooting in supine, moving between supine and sitting, and sitting and scooting on the edge of the bed. Bed Mobility Exercise is valuable in and of itself because it increases mobility and functional independence. When done correctly, it also provides a sound basis for out-of-bed mobility. Note that the techniques for bed mobility can also be used on mats, plinths, or other similar surfaces.
