Greetings!
Mark your calendar! Send your RSVP! Nothing gets you in the holiday spirit better than a party. Please plan to join us for our annual SelfCare Christmas Luncheons. Always lots of surprises and cheer.
New Rental Items - We listened and we are expanding our rental line to include the Vicair Adjuster 10 Cushion. We also have the Vicair mattress sections available for rental. They currently have a Velcro flap on each short side to facilitate attachment and are not yet available with snaps.
We discuss three mattress inserts for zoned pressure distribution - Vicair, ROHO and Viscofoam.
Even Santa can use a lift chair for Christmas - From now until Christmas we are offering $100 off the purchase of any lift chair.
Following on the Forum held by the Langley Branch of Osteoporosis Canada, we have attached information on the new Safehip Home Pack. The Forum stressed getting a bone density assessment and preventing a second break. The new Safehip Home Pack is the perfect solution.
PDG chairs with Express Seating will now feature seating manufactured by the Comfort Company. We have provided lots of details so that you can understand the benefits of this strategic partnership.
We look forward to providing you with useful information throughout the year. Please contact us at any time if you have any comments, questions or topics you want covered by an inservice by emailing kim.mackie@selfcarehome.com.

Vicair Adjuster 10 Cushion - New Rental Item
 The Vicair Adjuster 10 cushion in standard sizes is now available for rental with an incontinent cover.
Stocked sizes are 16x16, 16x18, 18x16, 18x18, 20x16 and 20x18. Rental rates are $100 per month for all sizes.
Reasons to rent the Vicair Adjuster 10 (which stands for 10 cm or 4 inch cushion height):
- Low maintenance - Air is encapsulated in the redesigned SmartCells which do not leak or require inflation
- Stable - The unique immersion qualities of the SmartCells provide excellent immersion for pressure redistribution while still providing stability to improve function and transfers
- Lightweight - The perfect companion to lightweight wheelchairs; the cushions weighs under 2 lbs.
- Adjustable - While each zippered compartment of the Vicair cushion can have cells removed or added, with the new softer and thinner SmartCells, the cushions will arrive with the appropriate fill for the majority of users and not require adjustment.

Lift Chair Special - $100 off any model
 From now until December 23, SelfCare is offering $100 off the purchase of any new lift chair. This gives customers the opportunity to choose the lift chair that is the best fit for them rather than focusing on the model on sale. Through the 3 locations, we currently have 15 lift chairs available for customers to trial.
