Legacy Home is a lateral turning bed designed for the rehabilitation and/or ongoing treatment of individuals with complex care needs, including multiple trauma, brain injury, thoracic and cervical spinal injury, and for paraplegics with minimal upper body strength.
Regular turning can reduce secondary complications such as pneumonia, DVT and pressure ulceration, and Legacy Home supports the provision of a turning routine without compromising patient safety or risking injury to carers.
