A power lift recliner is usually recommended for elderly people who have trouble getting up or sitting down. But are there are other types of chairs suitable for other situations? Well... Yes! If you are limited in mobility and dexterity, then that condition affects you outside the living room as well. As luck would have it, LPA Medical has a complete lineup of specialized healthcare seating designed for comfort and, most of all, safety.
Thera-Glide Self-Locking Glider Chairs
Everybody loves a good rocking chair. But their moving frame makes them a tad unstable to get in or out. Not the safest seating option for someone requiring extra support. The armrests, seat and backrest all move when trying to brace against them for support, making it a risky endeavor. The auto-locking gliding chair is the safest way to enjoy a good rocking. With its nifty locking mechanism situated in the backrest, the chair only moves once a person is fully and safely seated. The chair locks as soon as weight is removed from the back trigger, letting someone push off the armrests that are now standing sturdy. A much, much safer alternative.
The chairs are built using a wide variety of measurements, types of backrests, framing materials and upholstery. There is a Thera-Glide chair out there for you, whether it be for personal or institutional use.
Versatile Tilting Room Chairs
Designed by healthcare professional for healthcare professionals, the Versatile room chair is often seen in hospital rooms and other institutions. The height of these high back chairs is adjustable, letting you get in and out with more ease. The backrest is reclinable for extra comfort. In fact, this room chair is more than a recliner, as it also tilts forwards. By tilting the chair forward, it is much easier to get up and safer to transfer to another surface.
As an institutional tool, the Versatile patient chair are robust and covered with upholstery resistant to liquids and antimicrobial soaps. The metal frame is solid, it’s easy to clean and has options and accessories. As a high back patient room chair, the Versatile takes the cake.
Utility Adjustable and Stackable Chairs
In some cases, a smaller solution is needed as a bigger chair would be too cumbersome. The perfect example is at the dining table where most chairs are too low. A straight chair is ideal, but our high backrest room chairs might be a tad too large in this case. This is where the Utility multipurpose stacking chairs come in the picture. They are easy to clean, the height is adjustable, weighed for extra stability and have a few accessories (such as front wheels) for particular situations and needs. A perfect solution to get the right support at the right height in the dining room or working at your desk.
Although useful in the home, these chairs were actually designed and developed for long-term care environments such as retirement homes, clinics and the like. They are robustly constructed and durable yet comfortable. Easy to clean and designed with antimicrobial materials. Stackable, equipped with handles, and simple to use, these chairs are an excellent solution in dining rooms, waiting rooms and common areas.
Finally, LPA Medical produces a wide range of medical that are convenient, simple to maintain, easy to clean and most of all that are safe. Whether for your home or institutional residence, the self-locking Thera-Glide gliders, the tilting Versatile patient room chair, and the Utility multipurpose stacking chairs are comfortable and reliable options. More often than not if a power lift chair is recommended to you, other options might work just as well.
