Care Seating
Care Seating
Care seating represent a more advanced option compared to traditional rise and recline chairs, providing enhanced support for individuals with greater care needs.
For those considering care chairs, understanding their necessity is crucial. What distinguishes a care chair from a riser recliner, and how do you determine when someone requires one?
Identifying the need for a care chair over a riser recliner is the primary consideration. The key factor in making this determination is whether the individual requires hoisting for transfers.
If a client can perform standing transfers independently, a care chair might not be necessary, and attention can be directed towards riser recliners or high seat chairs. However, if hoisting is required, a care chair becomes the optimal choice due to its superior support for transfers and ease of hoisting.
Individuals in need of a care chair typically require extra support and enhanced postural management. For those who occasionally execute standing transfers but may face challenges intermittently, selecting a chair that caters to their needs for the majority of the time is essential.
Care chairs exhibit greater flexibility compared to other specialized seating options. Adjustable features such as seat width, height, and depth allow customization over time to meet the evolving needs of the client.
Given that individuals using care chairs often spend extended periods seated, incorporating pressure relief measures like gel and air cushions becomes crucial to minimizing the risk of pressure injuries.
Care chairs also offer various positioning options, including tilt-in-space, back angle recline, and legrest elevation, contributing to pressure injury prevention and ensuring the client's comfort and support.
Similar to riser recliners, care chairs come with different backrest options tailored to the client's comfort and requirements. Lateral backrests are particularly popular among clients requiring care chairs as they assist in maintaining a healthy midline posture.
Additional support features, such as a larger headrest, a pommel seat, or a lap belt, can be incorporated into a care chair based on the individual's specific needs.
