In a proud moment for Medaco, HRH The Princess Royal visited Shaftesbury New Court Place, a residential centre supporting twenty-four adults with physical and learning disabilities. The visit, marking Shaftesbury’s 180th anniversary, was warmly received by residents, families, staff, and supporters, recognising Her Royal Highness as Patron.

During her tour, HRH The Princess Royal viewed the newly installed Reval Transcare Bath, supplied and installed by Medaco. This specialist bathing solution is already making a tangible difference, improving comfort, hygiene, and offering therapeutic benefits that significantly enhance residents’ quality of life.

Shaftesbury has a longstanding reputation for pioneering compassionate, innovative care. The visit highlighted their commitment to independence through assistive technologies, including smart room controls, interactive digital tables, and plans for ceiling track hoists in every room.

The Reval Transcare Bath exemplifies forward-thinking, patient-centred care. Specifically designed for individuals with reduced posture control, it features a vertical-raise door and height-adjustable frame to provide smooth, dignified access while reducing manual handling risks for caregivers.

Its unique tilting function allows patients to recline semi-upright while fully immersed in warm water, enhancing physical comfort and therapeutic value. Optional HydroSpa, AromaSpa, ColourSpa, and AudioSpa features create a multi-sensory bathing experience that supports emotional as well as physical wellbeing.

For care providers, the bath’s intuitive touchless controls help minimise cross-contamination risks, and integrated anti-scald protection ensures patient safety. The Reval Transcare Bath reflects a broader shift in healthcare equipment design, prioritising dignity, safety, and ease of care delivery.

Medaco is proud to contribute to environments like Shaftesbury New Court Place, where innovative solutions and person-centred care improve lives. Demonstrating the bath in the presence of HRH The Princess Royal was a proud affirmation of how the right equipment can empower both residents and caregivers.
