Webinars

Specialist seating and bed positioning are critical interventions for maintaining resident comfort, preventing pressure injuries, optimising posture, and promoting participation in daily activities. Due to the amount of staff working in a nursing home, it is common to encounter challenges in ensuring these recommendations are consistently implemented following clinical handover to nursing staff. Factors such as staff turnover, competing clinical priorities, limited understanding of positioning principles, and ineffective communication from both sides can result in inconsistent practice and reduced therapeutic outcomes.

This webinar will explore the barriers to successful implementation of specialist seating and bed positioning recommendations, identify strategies for effective interdisciplinary communication, and discuss practical approaches to embedding these interventions into routine nursing care to improve resident safety and quality of life.

As health and social care services continue to evolve, Technology Enabled Care (TEC) is playing an increasingly important role in supporting people to live safely, independently, and confidently in their own homes. This webinar will explore how digital solutions, remote monitoring, telecare, and connected technologies can enhance person-centred care, improve outcomes, and support proactive intervention.

The session will showcase practical examples of TEC in action, discuss implementation challenges and opportunities, and highlight how technology can complement clinical expertise while empowering individuals and their families.

This session brings together the key themes explored across our recent webinars on the prevention and early intervention.

This chatty, podcast-style webinar offers a relaxed and interactive space to revisit the most important clinical messages from the quarter. Attendees are encouraged to submit questions in advance and during the session, creating an opportunity to explore real-world challenges, clarify key concepts, and deepen understanding of best practice when supporting individuals within prevention and early intervention.

We will also highlight relevant intervention solutions and explore practical strategies for teaching and supporting others, and we will share our Prevention and early intervention guide with attendees after the session to support ongoing learning and application in practice.

Whether you joined us throughout the series or are looking for a concise and practical summary, this session will consolidate learning and provide actionable insights to apply in practice.

This podcast will take a relaxed and curious look at sleep and rest, the daily rhythms and habits that can support rest and sleep, and the barriers that life can throw in the way including illness, cultural expectations, stress and life roles.

Something brand new is coming from Accora- and you can see it first.

The Presto is our groundbreaking innovation: the only bed on the market built around the entire equipment pathway, from prescription and delivery through to installation, maintenance and long-term use.

This session gives you a first look at how a single bed now covers ultra-low to full nursing height, moves and folds in under 30 seconds, and brings postural positioning, pressure area management and a memory function together in one solution- none of it shown publicly before.

The training will be delivered by Jayne Brewer, Occupational Therapist and Nicholas Drake, Category Lead. All attendees will receive a CPD certificate on completion.

Join us live to see the reveal, ask your questions in real time, and be among the very first to see what Presto means for service users, prescribers, technicians, warehouse teams and commissioners.

This webinar will focus on children with cerebral palsy who are classified at Gross Motor Function Classification System (GMFCS) Levels IV and V. Functional independent and interdependent mobility, and postural care are critical components of health, developmental exploration, and social participation for this population. The focus will be expanded from supportive positioning in lying, sitting and standing, to activities of daily living and natural routines, promoting supported stepping, mobility and physical activity.

Participants will explore evidence-based strategies to assess, prescribe, and implement adaptive positioning and mobility technologies, focusing on promoting movement opportunities, optimizing hip and spinal integrity, and mitigating secondary musculoskeletal complications. Video and photo case stories will illustrate evidence-informed implementation of these principles.

Join Jayne Brewer as she takes you back to basics, guiding you through the full seating assessment process from start to finish. This practical session will explore the key stages involved, including the importance of gathering pre-assessment knowledge and information to support effective, person-centred outcomes.

An Accora Product Specialist will also be on hand to provide additional insight, helping to bring the process to life with real-world context and expertise.

Whether you're new to seating assessments or looking to refresh your approach, this session will offer a clear and structured overview to build your confidence in practice.
