All requisitions for NHS Trusts, Ambulance Services and frontline care facilities continue to be processed and despatched within 24 hours of receiving orders from procurement or supplies departments. An extensive stock holding and our own UK based factory located here in Southport has meant that we have been able to service all orders for patient handling equipment without any delays - we are acutely aware that many intermediary suppliers to the NHS who source alternative products from overseas manufacturers continue to experience supply chain issues and are unable to fulfill urgent order requirements and maintain their usual service levels .

There is strong demand for the complete range of MEDesign's Patient Handling Equipment inventory but of particular note is the ongoing requirement for MEDesign's Patient Slider product. We are delighted that many NHS procurement departments have now taken onboard the fact that both the quality and cost price of this British manufactured product offers a better value yet comparable alternative to significantly more expensive products that are imported into the UK from the other side of the world.

Elsewhere, as UK industry and commerce has reopened its doors we are seeing substantial orders from end user companies who need to provide for the needs of large parts of their workforce who are now working from home. With budgets slashed and the need to find a "one product fits all" solution for back pain whilst sitting and working at the dining room table, the long established pedigree of the MEDesign Backfriend has proved to be the ideal solution for those situations where a bespoke office chair (often costing many hundreds of pounds yet lacking any degree of portability to move from office to home and then back again) is no longer an option for cash strapped occupational therapy departments and HR managers who are tasked with ensuring compliance with an ergononic working environment for their remote workforce.

If you need our assistance and think any of our products would prove to be of value in your own situation then please get in touch and we will do our very best to help.
