Medichill for maternity and labour wards
Put a smile on your manager’s face as well as your patients
Are you using ice, frozen saline sachets, wet towels, cabbage leaves or other methods to provide comfort to your patients during or post labour?
Then you should consider using Medichill Peri-Pads and Cool Cubes!
Nurses are very creative and have devised some weird and wonderful ice packs to help ease their patient’s perineal pain after childbirth. The hidden costs of these remedies are not sustainable in the long term for a busy maternity ward.
The Australian made Medichill Perineal Cool Cubes are the answer to soothe any discomfort for mothers during or post labour.
The Perineal Cool Pads absorbs and retains clean water, that can then be frozen or chilled to offer a comforting, medication-free solution to pain and soreness to the perineum.
The Medichill Perineal Cool Cubes can be easily stored in the freezer for single patient use when needed and provide a low cost, medication-free pain relief.
See below how this can benefit you and your patients!
