WarwickMed is leading the change from disposable theatre caps to reusable \u201cname and role\u201d cloth hats. These are already boosting staff morale and reducing patients\u2019 anxiety as they enable everyone to identify the people around them, quickly and easily. Our mission is to improve communication among healthcare professionals and patients by sharing best practice and promoting the many benefits of our eco-friendly, personalised caps.<\/p>\n
About Our Company
\nMy name is Danielle Checketts, Managing Director of Warwick Medical. <\/p>\n
As a former medical professional, I am passionate about patient safety and communication. \u202fMy mission is to help create a safer, greener NHS.\u202f
\nI started my medical career when I was 18 and alongside this, I also set up a business in balloon d\u00e9cor. I started working with the NHS as a Health Care Assistant and went on to qualify as a Staff Nurse specialising in Cardiology. After 7 years in the NHS, I decided to combine my health care experience and burgeoning business skills by making the leap into medical sales. \u202fHere I saw first-hand how having access to the right medical advances could change patients\u2019 lives. I also realised that collecting and sharing personal stories and clinical evidence was crucial in promoting those advances, enabling even more people to get life-changing treatment.

\nGoing it Alone: <\/p>\n
With years of healthcare and business experience under my belt, plus several awards and a qualification from the Association of the British Pharmaceutical Industry, in 2013 I branched out on my own.\u202fI launched Warwick Medical to help the NHS run more efficiently, to make savings where possible and to champion patient safety and communication.\u202fWe\u2019ve gone from strength to strength, working with partners right across the NHS. I\u2019ve used my experience of business and supply chains to create savings for hospitals and trusts and provide clinical staff with hands-on training and education.<\/p>\n
Named Reusable Theatre Caps: <\/p>\n
In 2020 I got involved in the campaign to introduce this ground-breaking headgear. The additional PPE required to fulfil COVID-19 regulations meant that patients and staff could not easily recognise each other, causing major difficulties in communication. After many months of research, I learned that reusable theatre caps, embroidered with people’s names and roles would reduce the chance of mistakes and miscommunication between clinicians and also reconnect patients with the people caring for them.\u202fThis was a simple solution to a potentially life-threatening problem, and one that seemed the perfect match for my skills, ethics and values.\u202fI partnered a Midlands-based firm in the UK which has been producing high-quality, affordable specialist workwear since 1939. They have been successfully manufacturing surgical gowns for the NHS and Nightingale Hospitals throughout the Covid 19 pandemic and they are now working with us to design and create customised, reusable caps for the NHS.\u202f We are working hard to spread the word to many more trusts and hospitals, showcasing the personal stories of numerous individuals and departments who have benefited from this straightforward but highly effective breakthrough. We pride ourselves on sharing best practice and introducing vital savings plus the environmental benefits of moving away from single use, disposable caps to reusable \u201cname and role\u201d cloth hats.<\/p>\n","url":"https:\/\/Warwickmed.co.uk","url_text":"warwickmed.co.uk","main_services":"Named theatre hats, Reusable scrub caps, Named theatre role caps, Scrub caps, Scrubs, Scrub jacket, Bandana theatre hat, Adjustable scrub cap, Reusable hospital gowns","image_1":"https:\/\/diib.com\/featuredmembers\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/05\/WarwickMedLtd2.jpg.png","why_we":"","history":"","image_2":false,"image_3":false},"yoast_head":"\n
