Protect Your Loved Ones in Erie from Bed Sores with SideLyer
Bed sores are wounds that stillness makes. When a person cannot shift their own weight, the same few square inches of skin over the tailbone, hip, or heel carry the load hour after hour, and the damage starts in the deep tissue where nobody can see it. By the time the skin shows a change, the injury underneath may already be well along.
SideLyer breaks that pattern. A motor moves the body to a new angle whenever the caregiver chooses, blood returns to the tissue that was under load, and the skin over the hips and lower back gets a rest. The same motion lifts the person upright, so they are looking at the room and the people in it rather than at the ceiling.
10× Fewer Bed Sores in Immobile Patients
Press a bony point of the body against a mattress for long enough and the small blood vessels in the tissue between bone and skin pinch shut. Without circulation, that tissue begins to die. SideLyer holds the body at angles that move the load to other areas and let blood flow back in before the harm becomes permanent. People using the system develop bed sores up to ten times less often, and that means no wound, no months of dressings, and no long recovery in a winter when getting to appointments is already hard.

Family caregivers and home health aides are looking for a safer way to move the people they help get the same value from it. Erie County has a lot of families keeping an aging parent at home, often in a house at the end of a long driveway in Harborcreek or Girard, and when lake-effect snow closes the roads for a day or two, there is no one coming to help with the turning. Every bit of that work lands on relatives who were never trained for it.

Why Families in Erie Choose SideLyer to Prevent Bed Sores
What families want from home care is not complicated. They want their relatives safe, comfortable, and treated with dignity, and repositioning has more to do with all three than most people realize before they take it on. The problem is physical. Rolling an adult every two hours around the clock is beyond what one person, or even two, can sustain for months on end.
Caregivers using SideLyer can:
For an Erie household where the main caregiver also works a shift at the hospital or the plant, being able to do a full turn alone in under a minute is often the difference between keeping someone at home and having to give that up.

Our Mission
We exist to reduce pressure ulcers in people who cannot move themselves and to protect the caregivers who move them. That means working alongside families and healthcare facilities to stop the pressure injuries that never had to happen and to take the injury risk out of manual repositioning. Motorized repositioning eases the strain on caregivers, makes daily care faster, and gives people who cannot reposition themselves more dignity and more independence than they would otherwise have.
