Harvest Healthcare

What Harvest Healthcare does

Harvest Healthcare is a UK-based manufacturer and supplier of healthcare equipment focused on the care home, hospital, and community equipment sectors. Headquartered in Rotherham and operating since 1997, the company designs, manufactures, and distributes a portfolio spanning pressure care (alternating and static mattresses, cushions, positioning aids), profiling beds (Woburn and Cadence ranges including ultra-low and bariatric variants), patient handling (hoists, stand aids, slings), plus-size/bariatric equipment, and ancillary products such as nurse call alarm systems and bathroom aids. The company's products are grounded in clinical application — pressure ulcer prevention and treatment, falls reduction, and patient dignity — with the Balmoral active mattress supported by post-market clinical follow-up data from an 82-resident study across 11 care homes, and equipment engineered to meet BS EN 60601-2-52 entrapment standards.

The business operates a B2B sales-led model with revenue streams across one-time equipment sales, recurring servicing/maintenance contracts (including LOLER testing), equipment rental, and bath refurbishment services. Distribution combines a direct sales team, awarded supplier status on NHS Shared Business Services and YPO public sector frameworks, and an international distributor network. Services are supported by a nationwide team of approximately 30 service engineers and a contact-free ozone-based mattress decontamination facility. Harvest has operated as a standalone subsidiary of Prism Healthcare Group since December 2019, following Neil Davis's management buyout from founders Phil and Jim Hutchinson in November 2018. Key customers include HC-One, Bupa, Sanctuary Housing, Sue Ryder, Turning Point, HMT Healthcare, and local authority community equipment stores, with channel partners such as Technicare Jersey supporting Channel Islands distribution.
