Stop The Pressure

Apollo Healthcare Technologies is a trusted independent UK manufacturer of pressure area care and support surface equipment.

We partner with clinical and care teams in Hospitals, Community settings, Care Homes and Hospices to prevent and manage pressure ulcers, effectively. 

The moves we make to support pressure ulcer prevention

We are always proud to support Stop the Pressure Week campaign.  As a pressure area care and support surface manufacturer, we see our role as supporting all clinical and patient moves – our goal is to make them easier. 

These are the four moves that matter most in our own work to support both clinical teams and patients.

Support

Some situations can be more complex than others. We are here to help clinical teams when that happens. From solution finding to pressure mapping, equipment trials and ongoing educational and product training.

Collaboration

We work with clinical teams to find solutions that work for individual patients, and further develop our pressure area care range, which includes pressure area care mattresses and cushions as well as beds, ensuring that our solutions are built for real clinical challenges.

Innovation

As a specialist medical equipment manufacturer, we can tailor our pressure area care mattresses, cushions and contracture pads to the needs of individuals. We develop our product range alongside our clinical customers and partners. 

Education

We support clinical teams with pressure ulcer education and prevention initiatives, as well as product training.

“Apollo Healthcare Technologies consistently demonstrates professionalism, responsiveness and a genuine commitment to improving patient outcomes. They are a valued partner in supporting our wards and clinical teams to deliver safe, effective and person-centred care.”
