Drive Medical provide a market-leading range of community assistive products to enable users to maintain an independent life at home and facilitate timely discharge from hospital.

As recently reported by the Government, the NHS is under enormous pressure from COVID-19 and remaining winter-related illnesses. On top of tackling the backlog caused by the pandemic, staff shortages and upcoming strikes, this poses an extreme challenge for Trusts and Health Boards alike. One of the key issues identified is delayed discharge, with the winter of 2022/23 seeing record numbers of patients who are medically fit for discharge but remain occupying an acute bed for extended periods of time.
