An apparatus and system are disclosed for supporting an individual during repositioning. A handle permits a user facing a first direction to traverse the perimeter of the handle to face a second direction. Thus, the user can move from a first position to a second position while maintaining contact with the handle with at least one hand. The apparatus, in one embodiment, may further include a base, a telescoping vertical member connecting the base to the handle, a drive member, and a securing mechanism to secure the telescoping member. The base may include a telescoping horizontal member with at least one extension. In a further embodiment, the apparatus may include one or more fasteners to secure the apparatus to a support, such as a bed or a wall.
