There has been limited choice of high back chairs:
• Seats with metal frames, which although inexpensive have non-breathable vinyl coverings and non-clinical foam.
• ‘Fireside chairs’ are attractive, as furniture – but do not address most clinical needs.
• Some healthcare chairs exist, but are non-adjustable and expensive
Prioritising Healthcare Needs
Following extensive discussion with professionals, we’ve designed a range of seats at different price points, which can be selected for the healthcare needs of the user as they evolve.
