ABSTRACT:
A tray is attached to the base of an over-the-bed table normally used by bed-ridden patients. This tray provides a convenient and readily available place for the patient to place his or her slippers to prevent them from being shoved under the bed or across the room. It also provides the patient with a convenient footrest when using the table either while sitting on the edge of the bed or in a chair. One version of the tray is pivotable in order that the patient may pivot it with his or her feet to the most comfortable angle. When the tray is pivoted, a method is provided for locking the table such that it will not move away from the patient due to the horizontal force vector resulting therefrom. Another version of the tray may be raised or lowered to suit the comfort of the patient.
