Achieving the Gold Standard in Repositioning for Dementia Care

WATCH ON-DEMAND: From Monday, 18th August 2025

Join us for an insightful and practical webinar designed to support healthcare professionals delivering pressure area care to individuals living with dementia.

Building on the success of the NAEP 2025 workshop, “An innovative approach to managing the repositioning schedule for patients with dementia”, Lisa Martin will explore how repositioning and pressure area care strategies can be adapted to better suit the complex needs of this patient group.

Informed by the pioneering work of physiotherapist Jo de Clercq, Lisa will highlight how tailored approaches to sensory load, gentle handling techniques, and the avoidance of reactive movements can help reduce paratonia, improve comfort, and prevent the development of pressure ulcers in patients with dementia.

Lisa will also introduce Frontier Medical Group’s pressure area care solutions, including Toto Cradle and Repose, demonstrating how they support compliant, effective repositioning while reducing the burden on caregivers and enhancing patient outcomes.

Global Clinical Lead, Frontier Medical Group

Lisa brings extensive experience in pressure area care and dementia support. In this session, she’ll focus on practical, evidence-based strategies while introducing Toto® Cradle, an automated lateral turning system designed to support repositioning schedules with minimal disruption to the patient.

In This Session, Delegates Will Learn:

• Why traditional repositioning methods may not meet the needs of people living with dementia

• How to apply “low and slow” techniques to reduce paratonia and improve tolerance to care

• The impact of sensory-informed care and pressure redistribution on pressure ulcer prevention

• How products like Repose® and Toto® Cradle can support gold standard care with minimal disruption

• Practical examples from Jo de Clercq’s work, including a seven-year track record of zero pressure ulcers

Who Should Attend:

Whether you’re a clinician, care provider, equipment prescriber, or service commissioner, this session will provide valuable insights into how automated lateral turning systems can transform repositioning practices, improve care efficiency, help reduce manual handling risks, and ensure better patient outcomes for patients living with dementia.

• Improve patient outcomes through evidence-based repositioning practices

• Reduce risk and burden for carers and frontline teams

• Understand how to integrate automated solutions into your care pathways

• Align your services with national best-practice guidelines
