Recovery from Strokes can be helped by many products

Therapy for stroke recovery patients living at home can be supported by Hospital Direct range of products that support stroke recovery treatment.

Sleeping after a stroke can be more difficult with patients needing support. Solutions such as Hospital Direct’s bed positioning wedge can be used to stay in a comfortable position while in bed, helping to alleviate pressure and prevent them from slipping down the bed. Once a carer has safely positioned the stroke recovery patient in their desired position, such as on their side, they can relax against the bed positioning aid in comfort.

Product Therapy for stroke patients living at home

Hospital Direct recommends using the bed-side positioning wedge in conjunction with the SIBA Satin Sliding System, which enables carers to safely reposition a stroke recovery patient before using the foam positioning wedge to add further support. The satin sheets’ anti-slip properties prevent the positioning wedge from slipping, guaranteeing user comfort. Alternatively, the Flexicare 4-Way System also works perfectly with the wedge.

The Webbing Bed Ladder also maintains independence for the patient and offers support during stroke recovery, enabling patients to sit up and lie down in bed without assistance from a carer.

This easy-to-attach bed ladder allows stroke recovery patients to maintain control as they sit up and lie down. Patients who would otherwise struggle to manoeuvre themselves gain a whole new level of independence with the webbing rope bed ladder, allowing them to reposition themselves safely and easily, aiding as part therapy for stroke patients living at home.

Hospital Direct manufactures webbing rope bed ladders to fit single hospital beds, single divan beds and double divan beds, whereas bespoke webbing ladders can be ordered for king-size and super-king-size divan.
