New Clinical Blog: Why Repositioning Should Never Be an Afterthought

In her latest clinical article, Tissue Viability Nurse Specialist Valerie Dowley breaks down the key factors needed for safe, effective, and patient-centred repositioning - critical reading for anyone involved in pressure area care or harm-free initiatives.

On this Armistice Day, we come together to remember the sacrifices of our Veterans - those who bravely served to protect the freedoms we hold so dear. Today, we honour their courage, resilience, and the lasting legacy they leave behind.

Their dedication reminds us of strength in unity, and the importance of peace.

"Age shall not weary them, nor the years condemn.
At the going down of the sun and in the morning.
We will remember them."

Preventing community-acquired pressure ulcers starts with smarter mattress choices.

Pressure ulcers are preventable, but only with the right tools.

Pressure-relieving mattresses are more than just equipment; they’re frontline interventions for patient safety, independence, and cost reduction.

The right support surfaces in Community Equipment Services can reduce avoidable harm, ease care delivery, and support efficient commissioning.

Need to discuss smarter mattress choices or talk through options?
