Bariatric solutions: The latest equipment, and how it can help you and your patients

NORTHAMPTON, U.K. - May 23, 2013 - PRLog -- However, if you haven’t bought or rented bariatric equipment for a while, you may not be aware of the latest products to hit the market.

As NHS-approved suppliers of bariatric equipment for sale and rental, Nightingale Bariatric Solutions (www.nightingalebariatricsolutions.co.uk) are always on the lookout for new and improved ways of helping patients who require bariatric care. They’ve recently updated their range with some innovative new products…

Make bathroom visits easy with a bariatric toileting and shower chair
As you’ll know, patients coping with obesity often find performing everyday tasks nigh-on impossible. Even going to the toilet and showering can prove problematic. Luckily, help is at hand.

The new X499 Bariatric Toileting and Showering Chair offers many of the features of Nightingale’s tried and tested bariatric hoists, with a robust stainless steel frame and aluminium components. Designed with patient comfort and safety as top priorities, the chair helps make bathroom visits hassle-free.

Give your patient more independence with the new bariatric safety walker
Bariatric walking frames are a fantastic solution for patients who have limited mobility yet who value their independence, allowing them to get around without the constant attention of a carer.

The new Bariatric Anterior Safety Walker is ideal for patients of up to 50 stone (318kg). With self-propelling anti-tip wheels, this safety walker makes it safe and easy for patients to get around by themselves. And with adjustable width and height, it offers exceptional comfort for your patient, and is easy for you to clean.

Sit in comfort with the new bariatric reclining chair – the ProAxis 50R
Bariatric chairs give obese patients the chance to get out of bed, yet still providing the bariatric care they need whilst sat down.

New to Nightingale is the ProAxis 50R, one of the most advanced reclining bariatric chairs on the market. Suitable for patients weighting up to 50 stone (318kg), with a seat width of up to 34 inches, this hoist-friendly chair offers adjustable seat depth, a pressure relieving seat, back and footrest, and a removable easy-to-clean protective cover.

Plus tried and tested bariatric beds, mattresses and hoists
In addition to the above new developments in bariatric solutions, Nightingale also offers tried and tested NHS-approved bariatric mattresses, beds and hoists, for sale or rental. Their emergency 24/7 rental service ensures you can have access to bariatric solutions as and when you need them, and their human approach means you’ll always feel looked after with Nightingale.
