Friends of St Cross

Examples of equipment donated to the Hospital

5 Variable Height Patients trolleys.
These will be used to transport patients in the new endoscopy suite, complete the procedure and return to the recovery bay afterwards, with the patient remaining on the same trolley throughout.

  

5 Bi-wave carer pressure relieving matresses.
These provide comfort for patients who are confined to bed and prevent the development of bed sores.

These will be used in all wards as required
