Pressure relieving comfort chair
Care home pressure management beyond the bedroom.

Potentialpressure sore injury
Pressure management is a crucial element of the overall care regime of disabled and frail elderly persons, and should not be confined to sleeping accommodation only. Due to the substantial amount of time that such persons spend sitting, the potential for developing pressure ulcers is high if pressure to the body is not adequately managed.

The implications
Damage to the skin and/or underlying tissue normally occurs over a bony prominence. Subsequent treatment of pressure ulcers is estimated to increase nursing involvement for a care patient by 50%. Significantly increasing care costs and causing severe discomfort to the patient.

The solution
Minimising pressure and shear strain to the vulnerable parts of the body is the secret to pressure injury prevention. By providing seating which absorbs pressure rather than transferring it to the body, and which helps to maintain good posture, the patient can be kept comfortable and healthy with a greater sense of dignity and well being.

Making itpossible
In the busy care environment it can be difficult to archive these conditions at the same time as providing a varied environment throughout the day.A flexible pressure care seating system is essential for quality of care.
