  • Stop Bed Falls

    Our research indicates that many bed falls are the result of air being dispersed from the edge of a dynamic air mattress towards the centre. This can leave insufficient volume under the patient, thus allowing the patient to roll out of bed. The Squirrel Diamond (Patent Applied For) uses a unique formulation that provides adequate stability at all times.

Squirrel Diamond

The Diamond Independence is a full replacement air flow mattress, that has been specifically designed in partnership with several prominent physiotherapists, tissue viability nurses and OT’s, on the understanding that self positioning, physiotherapy and independence are sometimes of equal importance as the traditional pressure relieving qualities of a dynamic airflow mattress.


 

The motion of most air mattresses is enough to create danger for the most simple of tasks such as reaching for a glass of water or sitting up in bed – let alone preparing to breach the gap from bed to wheelchair. On this point the Squirrel Diamond is perfect.–Christopher Mason, Stoke on Trent

 The diamond mattresses were evaluated as the best from a therapy and rehabilitation perspective.The trial gave us an opportunity to compare different products from various companies.– Lyn Wedlake, Hampshire PCT

 My client was admitted with a horrendous (grade 4) leg ulcer for which she was facing almost certain amputation. Today and to my absolute amazement this lady has made an almost full recovery, her skin is intact and her leg has been saved.–Jan James, Matron
