An improvement is provided in a bed having a side rail framework, and at least one dual-position rail assembly which is secured on one side of the bed. The improvement includes a rotatable structure upon which the dual-position rail assembly, is mounted in order to enable the dual-position rail assembly to move between two positively-stopped and automatically locked positions. A first of such positively-stopped and automatically locked positions disposes the dual-position rail assembly in an assist, vertically-oriented, position which is perpendicular to the longitudinal axis of the bed. A second of such positively-stopped and automatically locked positions disposes the dual-position rail assembly in a guard, horizontally-oriented, position which is parallel to the longitudinal axis of the bed. The lock structure for assuring such stopped and locked position is one which automatically locks and maintain the assist dual-position rail in a selected one of the positively-stopped and automatically locked first position, or the positively-stopped and automatically locked second position. The dual-position rail assembly is not adopted to be operated by the occupant of the bed, but it can be selectively, otherwise operated to aid a person in getting in or out of bed, or to restrain the person within the bed.
