Seating

Sitting has been implicated as a primary cause of pressure ulcers with 75% of patient’s weight distributed over 8% of the body surface area.

Renray Healthcare has successfully implemented many chair replacement schemes at a number of NHS Trusts. Predominately supplying the Elite chair range which was designed using anthropometric data which highlights 13 critical dimensions to achieve good sitting posture. As standard the Elite chair is supplied with a pressure reducing seat cushion. The visco-elastic seat cushion helps in the treatment and management of pressure ulcers with frequent monitoring and repositioning.

• Impressive pressure reduction testing

• The 10° recline assists spinal alignment

• Option of a seat board (SB) to allow specialist cushions to be used

Other ranges available with pressure cushions are the Balero, Baroque, Prestige, Renray, Snowdon and other upholstered chair ranges on request.

Squirrel Mattresses

Dynamic hybrid mattress replacement systems, providing high levels of care and comfort with an ultra-low profile. 

The best possible pressure area care

The Diamond at only 12.5cm deep shows comparable pressure mapping to traditional deeper mattresses. In addition it provides greater comfort, an improved surface for therapy and greater independent user mobility.

The Diamond “Ventilated Stacked Cell Technology” with smaller cells and integrated memory foam base-layer reduces shear and friction especially when the mattress is profiled.

The narrow cells provide better support and improved profiling compared to deeper systems with wider cells.
