60% of aging, long-term care residents develop pressure injuries. The aging epidemic, longer life expectancy, and extensive need for assistive care raise pressure injury risk and burden for individuals and institutions.
Many residents experience pressure-related discomfort, but undertrained and overworked staff tend to overlook their concerns, increasing complications, mortality risks, and nursing time and labor costs.
Domus Auto’s automatic firmness calibration and manual refinement optimize early pressure injury prevention. Sacrum pressure relief allows individuals with different postures to sit longer and more comfortably.
Optima Turn optimizes caregivers' workflow and safety during repositioning regimes by automating 30° turn with different turning cycle options, reducing nursing injuries and bottlenecks. Its side bolsters protect patients from pressing on the bed rails, ensuring safety and comfort during turning.
