Suggest Treatment For Rectal Prolapse

I was wondering if there is a device that could help an 80 year old woman who has a prolapsed rectum. She is no longer a candidate for surgery. If there is some type of product (like they have for hernias) that could help her at least have more mobility on the market I have not found one. Please advise.
