Theraposture delivers latest successful ‘Lunch and Learn’ in Brighton, focused on getting legs into bed.

Theraposture Ltd, the trusted market leading specialist in Rotating Assistive Beds, has delivered its latest educational session to Occupational Therapists from Brighton & Hove City Council.

Nick Lythe, Theraposture Trusted Assessor, has recently hosted the latest of these popular sessions by demonstrating the pioneering Orbit 235 bed to a group of OTs from Brighton & Hove City Council.

“Lunch and Learns” are free educational sessions provided by Theraposture, that inform and educate Healthcare Professionals regarding innovative solutions to everyday living challenges. These popular events are tailored to each group and allow those attending to try equipment, and to understand how they deliver significant cost savings and lasting positive outcomes.

This latest event featured the Orbit 235 Rotating bed from Theraposture. Delegates were invited to attend and were able to understand why this bed is so different to all other rotating beds.

Collectively, delegates were shown the extent of the personalisation that can be achieved with the Orbit 235, meaning that one bed can accommodate service users from 4’10” to 6’6”, weighing up to 31 stones. The Orbit can be individually configured (fitted) for each user, accommodating a huge range of shapes and sizes. This unique advantage means that it can be easily reconfigured and reissued, making it ideal for equipment services.

The event was promoted by Kevin Banfield, Independent Living Service (Housing, Care and Wellbeing) and he was delighted to welcome Nick Lythe to meet his team. Nick commented,

“The session was engaging and positive with an opportunity to get ‘hands on’ with the Orbit 235 rotational bed. This latest innovation represents a ‘game changing’ offering in assistive equipment as it offers an adaptable powered solution that get a wider range of individuals in and out of bed safely.”

Nick added,

“All the professionals I met today were very impressed with the Orbit 235, and there was a great sense of engagement and understanding resulting from the session. Following the presentation, we held a Q&A session which was useful for attendees and me as we discussed how the Orbit 235 is the answer for so many service users struggling with bed transfer. I look forward to delivering my next “Lunch and Learn” and would encourage all local authority OTs to book a free session, they are worthwhile and the team in Brighton left better informed.”

Theraposture provide a free lunch and refreshments and if required, a certificate of attendance to count towards CPD.
