Rehabilitation unit reports 0 pressure ulcers in 4 years with the Active 2

ACTON, U.K. - Jan. 26, 2017 - PRLog -- The Central England Rehabilitation Unit (CERU), offers neuro rehabilitation to adults following acquired brain injury - a national centre of excellence it's been established for over 20 years. This state of the art 42 bed centre is recognised as one of the leading units for providing patients with specialist rehabilitation.

Kathy Wagstaff Clinical Lead Nurse for Central England Rehabilitation Unit (Warwick) says:

"We have used the Invacare Softform® Premier Active 2 hybrid mattress at the unit for approximately 4 years. It is our mattress of choice due to the many benefits it brings to the rehabilitation environment.

Patients report that they are very comfortable, and the Active 2 feels more like their own bed than other healthcare mattresses they have experienced. Because they are suitable for a wide range of patients and conditions, they are able to be used on patients who are at 'High Risk' of developing pressure ulcers. Moreover, we haven't had an acquired pressure ulcer on the unit for 4 years!"

Additional benefits reported from CERU:

Allows patients to practice transfers from bed to wheelchair with greater ease, allowing for patient stability and balance from a non-moving surface

Quick and easy to use. Able to step up and step down patients with minimal effort and discomfort

Great quality – no faults reported in 4 years!
