The Trauma unit here at the John Radcliffe asked for our help to purchase a Carendo Multi-function Hygiene Chair. The chair enables severely injured trauma patients to be transported to the wet room is a safe way whilst being positioned at an appropriate angle for their injury. The height of the chair can also be altered to assist staff with accessibility and manual handling, reducing the risk to them and improving the physical and psychological wellbing of the patient.
