Vendlet V5S Patient Turning System

Product Details

The Vendlet V5S Patient Turning System is an innovative automatic patient transfer aid designed to facilitate the gentle and smooth repositioning of patients in bed. This assistive device significantly reduces the strain and effort required by healthcare staff, enhancing workplace health and safety while providing calm and gentle care for the user. By minimising the risk of pressure ulcers, the Vendlet V5S saves time and resources, offering a comprehensive solution for patient care.

Ideal for individuals with limited mobility, such as those with paralysis, Cerebral Palsy, or severe Parkinson's Disease, the Vendlet V5S ensures safe and gentle handling. The system's large sheet 'hugs' the user during transfers, reducing the risk of tissue damage and providing a comfortable experience. For those with cognitive dysfunction, including dementia, the system's gentle movements are calming and recognisable, reducing confusion and aiding understanding.

The Vendlet V5S is particularly beneficial for individuals affected by pain, those receiving palliative care, and those at risk of developing pressure ulcers. It is also suitable for people with disabilities or chronic conditions, such as muscular dystrophy, and elderly or geriatric patients who cannot turn themselves in bed. By reducing the physical demands on healthcare staff, the system enhances the quality of care and minimises workplace injuries.

Operating the Vendlet V5S is straightforward, with two motorised bars mounted on each side of the bed, controlled by a hand-held device. To reposition, simply raise one bar and tighten the sheet, allowing the system to turn the user while gently positioning their arms and legs as needed. The system also functions as a built-in bed rail when the bars are left up, providing additional safety and security.

Versatile and adaptable, the Vendlet V5S can be mounted on most care beds in hospitals, care homes, nursing homes, and even in the user's own home. It assists in turning a patient from a supine to a lateral position and back, transferring a user sideways in bed, moving a user from sitting on the bedside further into the bed, and simplifying the process of applying a sling. The system also aids in turning a patient to or from the prone position, making it an invaluable tool in patient care.
