Family-run healthcare equipment supplier Yorkshire Care Equipment has rebranded as Vivid.Care.
With significant growth plans in the pipeline, the equipment supplier has restated its mission ‘To enhance quality of life’ and will still serve the general public through its Harrogate-based showroom, home assessment service, and new website.
Tristan Hulbert, managing director, said: “Over the past three years, we’ve invested heavily in staff and new product development, and we now have our seating, falls, and rehabilitation products in homes and hospitals across the UK and abroad. We’ve become a key equipment supplier to the NHS, and whilst the original Yorkshire Care Equipment name has served us well, it no longer reflects the range of important work we do in the healthcare sector.
“It’s incredible what an impact our focus on product R&D has done to help the NHS and other providers improve patient care. For example, we collaborated with healthcare professionals which helped us identify existing issues and barriers to care. We found that multi-user environments needed a care chair that could care for a wide set of conditions and meet the needs of a range of people. This led to the creation of the Lento care chair that is fully adjustable without tools to fit 80 per cent of the population. This means that it can be customised within seconds for each individual and can be reused time after time making it ideal for multi-user environments.
“Our aim is to improve as many lives as we possibly can. That’s why we have multiple teams working with private individuals, hospital trusts, local authorities, and other care organisations, to ensure every sector gets the one-to-one care and support they’ve come to know and expect from us.”
