Patients with reduced mobility should be able to attend any consultation<\/span>, both those related to the world of aesthetics and those related to physiotherapy, where they will make up a high percentage of clients.<\/p>\n

Thus, accessibility in the consultation room is essential and must be taken into account in all spaces<\/strong>, always with the idea that this type of patient will not have problems when accessing the clinic, getting on the table, etc.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Height-adjustable tables are a great help.<\/h2>\n

In many practices, patients have to lie on the table and this is a problem if the height of the table is fixed. For example, people in wheelchairs may have difficulty transferring to the table, and the same may be true for those on crutches, with back problems, etc. <\/p>\n

For this problem there are different types of tables available for patients with reduced mobility<\/strong> in the wide range that Ecopostural<\/strong><\/a> offers, since they can be moved thanks to their wheels (if we choose a model that has them) and the height can be adjusted so that the patient can lie on it without difficulty.<\/p>\n

Spaces must be adapted<\/h2>\n

When it comes to making a visit to an office a comfortable experience for patients with reduced mobility<\/strong>, not only the interior spaces where the tables are located, but also the entrances, corridors, etc., must be taken into account.<\/p>\n

Inclusive design should be chosen<\/strong>. This means that doors should be wide, corridors should allow wheelchairs to turn in them, and the inside of the consultation rooms should not have too many obstacles. <\/p>\n

In addition, something as simple as placing handrails in the corridors or next to the doors<\/strong> can greatly facilitate accessibility to the clinic and make a big difference for people with reduced mobility.<\/p>\n

Be careful with the steps<\/h2>\n

<\/p>\n

It is not uncommon to design an adapted space without taking into account that two or three steps can hinder the transfer of patients, since it is very difficult to overcome them with a table. Therefore, if there are any barriers of this type in the clinic, it is best to place lifts for tables, with which these obstacles cease to be obstacles. <\/p>\n

Sometimes just a few cushions are enough to help these patients.<\/h2>\n

When we think about how to move patients with reduced mobility, we always imagine expensive equipment, lifts, etc., but sometimes simple cushions are enough.<\/p>\n

As for example the set of trapezoidal cushions A4445.<\/strong> Postural pillows (click on the photo to see their characteristics). <\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Once the client is on the table, some of our cushions are ideal for repositioning or elevating the client.<\/strong> Each patient needs a specific one, but the truth is that the wedge-shaped ones work very well. The round ones are also very useful, because in this case they even allow the patient to \u201croll\u201d on them, so it is very easy to move the patient without any force or harm.<\/p>\n

Tables with handrails give patients confidence<\/h2>\n

On the other hand, it is also advisable to select tables that are equipped with side rails, as these offer additional support to the patient, providing greater confidence and safety during the process.<\/p>\n

Therefore, the table with handrails, of which we sell some models, is a great help, especially when this handrail can be folded down and does not disturb when positioning the patient and lifting him\/her.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/p>\n

Once lying down, the client can be sure that he or she will not fall, even if he or she makes sudden sideways movements. These handrails are often used as a support point to hold on to. They are made of metal and are very resistant, so that lateral movements are easier thanks to them. <\/p>\n

Thanks to their position, the patient himself can raise them if he needs them, although to remove them a professional or a companion will have to come, since a mechanism located on the outside of the table must be activated.<\/p>\n

The upholstery of the tables should be thicker.<\/h2>\n

The tables usually have a few centimeters of padding, which should be more when we know that we are going to receive people with reduced mobility.<\/p>\n

The patient may not have sufficient strength to perform movements smoothly, which makes it crucial to provide a sufficiently cushioned surface. This minimizes any risk of injury or damage during mobilization. <\/p>\n

In turn, this will make the wait more comfortable for them, as they sometimes have to spend more time on the tables, as the help of a family member or other professionals may be needed in order to incorporate them.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

In this sense, we want to emphasize that Ecopostural<\/strong><\/span><\/a> is committed to the comfort and safety of all patients. Therefore, it offers a variety of tables with three different foam thicknesses to meet the individual needs of each patient. Whether you need a softer padding for those patients who can sit normally, an intermediate padding for those who require additional support, or an extra thick padding for those with reduced mobility who need greater comfort and protection, Ecopostural offers a wide range of different foam thicknesses to meet each patient’s individual needs. <\/p>\n

At Ecopostural, we provide customized solutions for all types of situations. Our height-adjustable tables with handrail options give patients safety and confidence, while our different padding thicknesses ensure maximum comfort. <\/p>\n
