2 0 1 9 N I G H T I N G A L E AWA R D S WINNER PROFILE: INPRO Silver Award in Architectural Products: Clinical The key feature of Inpro's new 1000 Behavioral Health (BH) Handrail is a solid aluminum ligature-resistant retainer specifically engineered to reduce the wedge point from the top of the handrail. The retainer works in tandem with the solid one-piece wall returns. In addition, the top of the vinyl cover sets within the integrated aluminum channel, removing a pick point to reduce the risk of the part being removed and used as a weapon for self-harm or against others. The 1000BH offers easy installation with a one-piece aluminum bracket/retainer and one-piece returns (patent pending). 1 0 0 0 B E H AV I O R A L H E A LT H H A N D R A I L Jury Comments * "Great evolution to the hospital handrail.
