Streamlining your cushion range

Simplifying the variations of pressure cushions available to prescribe whilst still ensuring the highest level of pressure care, postural support and temperature regulation from only 3 cushions.

Ensuring the correct cushion is prescribed every time

FREE CPD training on pressure care and clinical support to all prescribers to increase their knowledge, full product demonstration days at regional locations as well as introducing iQ assessment tools.

Saving Money

Our competitive pricing also contributes to this but manufacturing all of our products in the UK to the highest possible standards means a quick turnaround

Even bigger savings to be had

All of this was before we introduced the Equazone Air Cushion which has now replaced up to 5 cushions on some contracts at a cost that is really appealing, great pressure reduction of Air and offers the stability of foam

Standards and Cleaning

HANDLING INSTRUCTIONS / INTENDED USE

Regularly check for any splits, tears, loose stitching or excessive wear. Check the foam to ensure that it is correctly shaped and compresses and recovers correctly. If the Polyeurathan film is split and foam is damaged contact your supplier.

TESTING STANDARDS

All Helping Hand Pressure cushions are tested to BS7176 specification for resistance to ignition of upholstered furniture for non-domestic seating by testing composites. They are certified to ignition source 5 and cigarette and match but please avoid excessive heat or open flame

WARRANTY

All Helping Hand Pressure Cushions are guaranteed to be free from defects in material and workmanship for a period of 24 months from the date of purchase, provided they are used correctly for the purpose they were intended. The warranty does not apply to punctures, tears or burns, not to the cushions removeable cover. The removeable outer and inner covers are guaranteed to be free from defects in materials and workmanship for a period of 24 months from the date of purchase, provided normal use.

CLEANING, MAINTENANCE AND STORAGE

Correct and regular cleaning and mainenance helps to extend the life of the cushion.

All covers can be machine washed, please check the label on the individual cushion. Remove the cover from foam composite before machine washing.

Foam composites are covered with a polyurathane film. Providing this film has not been damaged, clean with soft cloth moistened with water and a neutral detergent.

Do not submerge in water

Do not leave the cushion outside – extended exposure to the elements coudl compromise the effectiveness. Store in a dry (moisture free) and clean environment when not in use.

COVER ORIENTATION

Please ensure that the orientation compass is positioned correctly. If the cover is not used correctly it may reduce or eliminate the cushions benefits and could increase the risk to the skin and soft tissue.

When putting the cover back on to the foam composite please ensure that the cover has been put back on to the foam composite in the correct orientation, and that the orientation compass is in the correct position.

Should you require a new cover, please contact Helping Hand Pressure Care on: 01531 8100199 or sales@hhpressurecare.co.uk

1 Minute Delivery with Consignment Stock

Why not stock the pressure cushions that you use most often at no risk?

We can work with you to have your most used standard sized wheelchair cushions on your shelf so you can get your users prescription to them immediately.

We would do monthly stock checks to ensure you have the right cushions on the shelf but we will be flexible and alter numbers to suit.

We would invoice you monthly only for the cushions you have used and replenish your stock quickly as always.

Consignment stock doesn’t only reduce spend on product but dramatically reduces staff time issuing the correct cushion from the shelf in seconds instead of needing a hand over another day.

Another time saver with Consignment stock is your administration team will only have to raise one order a month for the cushions used and not 20+ individual orders.
