Increase patient comfort and save your team's back

Looking to brighten up your ward and save your team's back?

In general care, elderly care, ICU, and HDU settings across the UK, healthcare professionals face numerous challenges that impact daily operations and patient care:

• Patient Mobility: Ensuring patients can move safely and comfortably.           
• Falls and Safety: The elderly are particularly vulnerable to falls, which can lead to serious injuries.
• Reduced Mobility: Many elderly patients experience difficulty moving or sitting upright without support.                                                                               
• Critical Illness Monitoring: Patients in HDU require close monitoring but may also need to be mobile to prevent muscle wasting.
• Comfort and Stability: These patients may experience severe discomfort from long periods of immobility or from being in one position too long.               
• Back Pain and Physical Strain: Healthcare staff, particularly those in ICU, HDU, and elderly care, are often required to assist patients with mobility, repositioning, or transferring them from bed to chair. This repetitive heavy lifting and awkward postures can lead to back pain and long-term musculoskeletal problems.
  

Our TX range of acute care chairs is widely used throughout the UK. They are found in general wards, frail elderly care, trauma and orthopaedics, and high dependency units, sharing features that ensure durability and ease of use.

• Retractable footrests - footrests can adhere to the floor on certain models, offering a stable platform for the patient and healthcare team.

Bright colours in healthcare environments can contribute to a more positive and supportive atmosphere, helping to uplift patients' spirits and aid in the healing process. A well-designed care setting with vibrant colours can have a calming effect, making the environment feel less clinical and more welcoming, which is particularly beneficial for elderly and vulnerable patients.
