Website: www.Hilllabs.Com/90W Contact: (877) 445-5020 sales@hilllabs.com or info@hilllabs.com Location: Frazer, PA Founded: 1945 Name of featured product: 90W Wound Care Chair Today’s Wound Clinic spoke with Jim Gemmell, Marketing and Advertising Design at Hill Laboratories Company to learn more about their product 90W Wound Care Chair. Today’s Wound Clinic (TWC): What year was your product created and why? Jim Gemmell (JG): The Hill 90W was originally developed in 2003 in direct response to inquiries from wound care professionals asking Hill Laboratories to consider designing a chair specifically for wound care. We gladly accepted and with their professional input, the 90W was born. TWC: Describe the product to our readers. JG: The Hill 90W is the ideal chair for wound care. It features electric power height from 22” to 32” with a 600 lb. lifting capacity. The power lift back, power-tilt and power foot section is all controlled by electric foot pedals for easy positioning. The foot section also extends in length for taller patients. Fold-up armrests lay flat when the chair is in full recline. The 90W’s contoured back and seat,face cut-out for face down procedures, 26” or 30” width and 1” soft foam over 1 1/2” medium make it very comfortable for patients. The Hill 90W is Met Lab/UL certified and comes with a one-year warranty. TWC: Describe how a wound care clinician would use your product in the wound care center? JG: The 90W is often received with “wow!” when delivered to a wound facility. It’s such a dramatic upgrade from awkward stretchers, gurneys, and chairs designed for other purposes ... it truly changes how clinicians work with their patients. It quickly becomes a favorite in the wound care clinic. The 90W’s low 22” height and full recline make transferring patients extremely easy while the 600 lb. lifting capacity eliminates the strain of working with bariatric patients. The power foot section lowers to full vertical so mobile patients enter and exit the chair with ease. Once seated, the power features of the 90W make patient positioning quick, versatile, and comfortable. The optional stirrup also makes leg wrapping an easy, one-person procedure. TWC: Are there different model numbers or levels to your product? JG: The standard 90W is generously equipped for $4995. Upgrade options include an adjustable stirrup for leg wrapping, stainless tray, auto-return, hand controls and more. TWC: Does your product come with any warranties or extended warranty offers? JG:The Hill 90W comes with a standard one-year warranty. TWC: Does your product come with any ad on services? JG: While it is rarely needed, every Hill 90W comes with service and support from Hill Laboratories. TWC: Does your product come with any training or educational materials? JG: The 90W is very easy to use. A simple demonstration video is available on our website. A detailed product manual is also included with every table. TWC: Where is your product available for purchase? JG: Customers can purchase the 90W directly from Hill Laboratories by calling toll-free (877) 445-5020. A helpful sales representative will help with all the details. TWC: What makes this product stand out from your competitor’s products? JG: Well, several companies sell a podiatry chair for wound care and many clinicians assume these are all that are available, Not Hill. From the bottom up, we designed the Hill 90W specifically for wound care and its unique demands. It’s versatile, affordable, and backed by more than a 65-year tradition of quality and service.
