A standing assistive device is provided having a wall bracket and an arm portion with handle. The wall bracket may be affixed to a wall either in front of or behind either side of a toilet. The arm is mounted to the wall bracket with two pivots one pivot that allows the unit to swing up and down which facilitates storage of the unit against the wall vertically when not in use and a second pivot that allows the unit to swing left to right which facilitates storage of the unit against the wall horizontally when not in use. Additionally, the second pivot makes it possible for the handle on the arm portion to be positioned directly in front of the user when the user pulls himself or herself up. An optional wall-mounted ladder bracket allows the user to adjust the vertical mounting position of the device.
