A lot of agencies and training providers are teaching supine as a position as an alternative to prone as a result of the Department of Health Positive and Proactive Care Guidance that advised that prone should not be used.
We’ve just had some phenomenal and exciting news that I wanted to share with you all as we’ve just had the data through that we have managed to reduce prone/face-down restraint by 79% for one organisation between April to December this last year. And we can help you do the same.
In my last video ‘How Restraint Equipment Can Reduce Risk’ I spoke about using restraint equipment as a least intrusive option, and if you haven’t seen that video you can watch it here – https://nfps.info/how-restraint-equipment-can-reduce-risk-video/
Today I have Pal with me from UK Pods Ltd, and I’ve hijacked him to talk about the Safety Pod to give all of you a better understanding of this exceptional piece of equipment and how it can help you reduce the need for prolonged restraint, especially on the floor in prone and supine as well as helping you reduce risk, costs and your overall liability.
