No more however. It only took…

The VENDLET turning and repositioning system is the latest innovation in patient handling and single-handed care.  The concept is based on a set of motorised roller bars and sheets, which gently turn or reposition the patient, dramatically reducing the risk of shear and friction and providing welcome relief for carers.  The advent of mechanised turning also allows for reduced care handling, providing cost savings but, equally importantly, greater…
