The TurnCare Story

Born from the vision of one doctor
inspired to solve a problem impacting millions of patients

TurnCare was founded in 2011 by Dr. Rafael Squitieri, Chief of Cardiothoracic Surgery at St. Vincent’s Medical Center in Bridgeport, CT, along with Kim Orumchian, serial entrepreneur and technology expert. Dr. Squitieri was frustrated by the number of mobility-impaired patients developing complications due to sacral region ischemia and reperfusion injury, despite clinicians’ best manual efforts to maintain adequate perfusion and use of the latest therapeutic equipment.

Dr. Squitieri focused on the circulatory system’s critical role in health to create a technology that would relieve sacral vascular compression to enhance perfusion of oxygen and nutrients to sacral tissues. After four years of painstaking research and hundreds of prototypes, Dr. Squitieri and his interdisciplinary team developed the TurnCare Guardian System, which has been shown in clinical trials to successfully prevent and treat sacral pressure injuries.
