Powered bed rails?

Google hasn`t helped me to locate a bed rail that lifts and lowers by motor, and I find it hard to believe my case is so unique that nobody markets them. My mother has fallen out of her bed a few times recently- meds make her so groggy that she just slides out and doesn`t wake up to stop herself until she hits the floor. With the range of motion and strength limitations in her shoulders, there`s no way she could raise or lower a regular swing away rail, and while my father is usually at home with her, there are still enough times she`s alone that she refuses to be "locked in" to her bed. An electric model with push button raise and lower would be sweet! But even in this day of powered everything, I can`t seem to find anything like that. Anybody know of one that I`m missing?
