Combining effective pressure redistribution with safer lateral patient transfers

Repose Companion is a unique device which moves with the patient, combining effective pressure redistribution and safer lateral transfers. 'A logical solution to lateral transfer' - Rather than move the patient from one surface to another, move them together.

A patient is likely to experience a wide variety of support surfaces throughout the journey from admission to discharge - some may provide adequate pressure redistribution but typically, most will not. In addition, the transfers between surfaces may cause pressure damage due to the friction and shear forces exerted in many lateral transfer procedures.
