Item Details
Broda Padded Glider With Autolock
ILC Reference NO 41:14:016
Item sourced from ILC ACT database
Short Description
The Broda Glider is a metal frame chair with padded upholstery. The backrest and seat have a series of vinyl straps that span the frame. Glider begins to glide once the user sits in the chair, and stops gliding once the user begins to vacate the chair. The Glider also features a caregiver lock to prevent any unwanted gliding. Available in three sizes.
More Details
APPLICATION
Suitable for people with Alzheimers and Dementia, as well as for ambulatory people who can benefit from the mild exercise or who exhibit a tendency to wander. The smooth gliding action produces a calming effect and helps reduce the need to wander.
MATERIAL
16 gauge powder coated tubular steel, stable base. Vinyl upholstery.
SEAT
Soft abrasion resistant vinyl covered seat and back pad and side panels (neckrest cushion standard on tall back Glider only).
The Broda Comfort Tension Seating™ "Suspension System
provides a comfortable functional chair. Each strap conforms individually to the user's body, thus suspending the weight of the user across multiple points. This strapping system eliminates any risk of bottoming out (padded seat) or extra pressure from a sling type seat. Straps reset within 10 seconds.
