Key Features
3-Position Recline: Adjustable into three distinct positions:
Upright: Ideally suited for patient transport or dining.
Deep Recline: For sleeping or extended resting.
Elevated Leg Rest: Allows the footrest to rise to improve lower body circulation.
Activity Tray: Includes a large, blow-molded tray that locks in 5 different positions and can be stowed away on the side of the chair when not in use.
Moisture Barrier: The seat cushion is designed with a barrier to prevent fluid seepage, protecting the internal foam and ensuring hygiene.
Removable Side Panels: The side panels ("pop-off" design) can be removed completely to allow for thorough cleaning and easy maintenance.
Suspension System: Uses a self-adjusting suspension in the seat to prevent "bottoming out" (sinking too deep), providing consistent comfort for long durations.
Mobility & Safety: Equipped with four 5-inch casters (wheels) for easy movement. The two rear casters feature locks to secure the chair in place.
Retractable Lock Bar: A safety mechanism that secures the chair in the chosen position.
Primary Uses
Clinical Treatment: Frequently used for dialysis, infusion therapy, blood collection, or respiratory care where patients must sit for extended periods.
Geriatric Care: Standard seating in nursing homes and assisted living facilities for residents who require more support and mobility than a standard armchair provides.
Patient Transport: The sturdy wheels and push-handle allow caregivers to move patients safely between rooms without requiring the patient to stand or transfer to a wheelchair.
Post-Operative Recovery: Provides a supportive, adjustable resting place for patients recovering from surgery who cannot yet lie flat in a hospital bed.
