Optimising Care Efficiency and Supporting Caregivers with Toto Cradle
In today’s demanding healthcare environments, efficiency and caregiver support are more critical than ever. Healthcare professionals face increasing pressures to deliver high-quality care, manage complex needs, and reduce the risk of complications, all while operating with limited time and resources. Toto Cradle offers a powerful solution to ease this burden and transform how we approach patient turning and pressure area care.
Care in Motion: A Smarter Way to Reposition
The Toto Cradle is an automated lateral patient turning system that enables prescribed turning intervals even while patients sleep. Its innovative, discreet design supports consistent and controlled repositioning, offering a new approach to “two-hourly” or “overnight” turning. By automatically redistributing pressure via inflatable air cells, Toto ensures that patients are gently turned from head to toe, reducing peak pressures and minimising the risks associated with immobility.

Relieving the Strain on Caregivers
Manual patient repositioning is physically demanding and time-consuming. For caregivers and healthcare providers stretched thin, it can contribute to fatigue, increased risk of injury, and limited time available for other patient needs. Toto Cradle dramatically reduces the need for manual repositioning, supporting single-handed care where appropriate and freeing up valuable time to focus on therapeutic interventions and patient engagement.
Enhancing Workflow and Reducing Disruption
Thanks to its lightweight, user-friendly, and easy-to-set-up design, Toto Cradle can seamlessly integrate into daily routines across acute and community care settings. Its automation ensures that repositioning continues consistently without requiring constant oversight or intervention from staff, improving workflow without compromising care quality.
Improving Patient Outcomes Through Better Support
While Toto Cradle improves care efficiency, it also enhances clinical outcomes. By supporting regular, uninterrupted turning intervals aligned with international pressure ulcer prevention guidelines (EPUAP 2019), Toto Cradle reduces the risk of pressure damage, promotes healing, and helps patients maintain skin integrity. At the same time, patients experience greater comfort, less sleep disruption, and improved dignity, particularly in palliative and end-of-life care.

Empowering Care Through Innovation
Supporting carers and clinicians doesn’t just mean reducing workload; it also means providing the tools they need to confidently deliver exceptional care. Toto Cradle empowers healthcare teams to provide effective, personalised therapy at scale, helping them respond to patient needs efficiently while maintaining the highest standards of care.
Toto Cradle is more than just an automated lateral patient turning system; it’s a smart solution for innovative healthcare provision, particularly in a home care setting. By optimising care efficiency and alleviating the burden on caregivers, it enables safer, more dignified patient care and promotes more sustainable working practices for healthcare providers.
