Latest News From Tissue Viability

Nicole says – “Despite the fact I was disabled all my life and fight almost every day with problems, life had offered me from time to time a reward giving me the chance to meet wonderful people. First was Vicki Pearson and her charity – Romania Connect- who brought me here and now Fiona Collins from Tissue Viability Consultancy Services Ltd and Steve Betteley Southern Mobility. I could not ask for more commitment and dedication from them both and they manage to change me from a person who had to be indoors most of the time to somebody who is able now to be in wheelchair 7 – 8 hours everyday. I don’t want anybody to know what means to live having constantly in mind the risk of pressure sores and knowing that every minute in wheelchair will be later “paid” in months of healing in bed. There are not enough words to thanks to Invacare and Helping Hands who responded to Fiona’s request to help in this project and I’m more than grateful that this joint effort has such an amazing end. Without them I never could afford to have such a great wheelchair like the one I’m using now or the cushion who sent away the risk of pressure sores. My life is now totally changed in a positive way and I will always think with love and gratitude to the people and firms I mention above who made this dream come true.
