Supporting Care at Home and Early Discharge This Winter

This winter, Frontier Medical Group is proud to support healthcare professionals working under extreme pressure to help patients remain Home this Winter, where they are safest, most comfortable, and most independent.

As winter pressures intensify across the NHS and community services, ensuring patients receive the right care, in the right setting, at the right time has never been more critical. Supporting early discharge, preventing avoidable admissions and readmissions, and maintaining safe continuity of care are essential to protecting both patients and healthcare capacity.

At Frontier Medical Group, we are dedicated to supporting healthcare providers in keeping patients where they most want, and need, to be: at home this winter.

Whether enabling earlier discharge from hospital or preventing avoidable admissions from the community, our Repose® and Toto® pressure area care solutions help ensure patients at risk of pressure damage receive effective, dignified care throughout the winter months.

 

 

Supporting Early Discharge

 Helping patients return home safely this winter

In acute settings, delayed discharges often occur due to the availability and complexity of community care packages, particularly where patients require regular repositioning to prevent pressure damage.

The Toto® Automatic Lateral Turning System and Toto® Cradle, featuring the innovative Cradle Support System, support prescribed repositioning as part of a structured pressure ulcer prevention strategy. This enables safe, consistent care to continue beyond the hospital setting.

By integrating Toto and Toto Cradle into discharge planning and community care packages, discharge teams, nurses, and multidisciplinary teams can help patients return home sooner, freeing up valuable hospital beds and easing winter pressures across the NHS.

 

Supporting Care at Home

Keeping patients safe, comfortable, and at home this winter

In community and care home settings, preventing pressure damage is key to avoiding deterioration and unplanned hospital admissions.

Repose® pressure redistribution and reduction support surfaces provide protection, treatment, and comfort for people at all levels of pressure ulcer risk, including those with existing damage, across home and care home environments.

 

  • Repose Seating & Surface Solutions

    Easily fitted to existing beds, riser recliners, and static chairs, Repose supports comfort and pressure redistribution as part of a package of care.

  • Repose Foot Care Solutions

    Designed to offload heels and lower limbs, helping protect against pressure ulcers while supporting comfort and positioning.

  • Toto in the Community

    By automating repositioning, particularly overnight, Toto supports caregivers and community nursing teams to maintain continuity of care safely and efficiently, while reducing manual handling demands.
