Dear The issue of pressure ulcers in long term care facilities is fairly simple. You have a population of residents who are more likely to be at risk for pressure ulcers, people who require a lot of care for other problems. You also have caregivers and clinicians stretched to the limit, trying to treat a host of different conditions, all of which are, if not more important than pressure ulcers, at least more immediate.
Thankfully, the solution can be simple as well. Facilities that use the Heelift
® Suspension Boot can rest assured that the second most common place for a pressure ulcer, the heel, is taken care of. By completely offloading the heel, the Heelift creates a pressure-free environment that is ideal for both treatment and prevention of heel pressure ulcers.
Don't take our word for it. Request a sample of the Heelift by using the link below. We know you'll find the Heelift to be the easiest to use and the most effective. Your facility will find the Heelift to be the best value for the cost. And your patients will find that the Heelift stays in place, is comfortable, and protects their heels better than other boots on the market.
We have a wealth of information available on our website, especially in our new
Nursing Station where you'll find more articles, videos and information about how the Heelift can help your patients.

Sincerely,
