The government has renewed the MSIF Workforce Fund this year as it recognises that local areas are best placed to design and deliver their own tailored care initiatives. This fund can be used to improve your workforce capacity and retention, including by purchasing more functional equipment.
For example, we have supplied new fleets of Raizer patient lifting devices through a council to Extra Care council run care homes this season, financed through the MSIF Workforce Fund!
Looking to purchase specialist seating, or Raizer falls devices? We’ll help you to collect the following evidence needed to prove that they increase workforce capacity and retention. We know it works, we’ve done it before!
Seating:
Increases patient independence; reduces pressure issues (therefore case loads), reduces deconditioning due to considered therapeutic care features, reduces WRMSD/RSIs, improves care delivery, reduces waits for assessments due to adjustability, and increases happiness of patients.
Raizers:
Increase workforce capacity as a single handed falls response device; reduce need for training, reduce maintenance (none required on the manual version, we’ll cover the electric ones), reduce ambulance waiting times, reduce WRMSD/RSIs, improve patient outcomes, and decrease emotional trauma.
