Yeoman Shield recently supplied and installed a handrail system in an NHS Trust’s seven mental health accommodation units.
With a requirement for a handrail that was also sensitive to the nature of service users, an Anti-Ligature Guardian Handrail was chosen from the Yeoman Shield range to be fitted to corridor and passage way walls.
Using a continuous fixing bracket running the full length of the handrail eliminates points where ligatures can be attached. Close fitting wall return ends ensures complete enclosure of all mechanical parts of the rail.
