The British Healthcare Trades Association (BHTA) has welcomed LendoCare as a new member. LendoCare’s goal is to simplify access to at-home medical equipment through rental models.
The BHTA recently caught up with Solomia Boretska, CEO/Co-founder of LendoCare, to find out more about the firm, its plans for the future, and how the BHTA can support with key issues.
Solomia is a neuroscientist by background, as she explained: “I volunteered with the MND Association during my studies and saw firsthand the difficulty of accessing equipment across the UK.”
That is when LendoCare was born.
“I started the business with my brother and co-founder to tackle the lack of digitalisation in the equipment hire process for customers,” Solomia continued.
LendoCare is building the digital equipment hire service for the UK, offering customers easy availability and a booking platform. Its mission is to tackle the postcode lottery of care by providing affordable healthcare equipment services at a national scale. Looking ahead, LendoCare plans to expand into the electric wheelchair and scooter sector.
LendoCare decided to become a BHTA member for several reasons.
As LendoCare expands, it is seeking support with medical device registration regulations and supply chain support. These are two areas where the BHTA can offer expert guidance.
LendoCare also wants to learn from other BHTA members in the space and receive up-to-date and relevant regulatory information.
Solomia added: “I’m keen to attend some in person events as well as Section meetings.”
