cell phone strap
Just wanted to add another item that helped me in hospital -- cell phone strap with a neck lanyard.
I didn't put the neck lanyard around my neck, bur rather looped it through the upper bed rails so I could snap the phone in. At home I did wear the phone around my neck for few days - esp first week while I was alone during the day. Just in case I fell and couldn't get up I'd be able to call for help since phone was attache to me.

Link to the one I got ( I have amazon prime so I was able to order it few days before surgery and have it in time). I picked a seller that offered prime option -- some of the sellers selling that same item are over seas.
The phone strap comes in two parts so I could leave the long neck strap attached to bed and detach the phone while in use. The center silver button releases the silver ring to detach. I kept the phone attached to the long neck strap when I wasn't using it.
Also had a very long charge cord so I could easily reach the charge cord to plug/unplug without help.
I had my PTs and nurses comment how great the idea of keeping the phone tethered to a strap and attached to bed was. I have an inkling they often have to retrieve dropped phones for patients.
