Terminologies
Patient: The person sitting in the chair
User: Competent person with responsibility for the person sitting in the chair as well as
the suitability of the equipment for the Patient. The User is responsible for checking the
chair for faults during the course of its use.
There are many options, accessories and alternative features available with the Seating
Matters chairs. We suggest you consult your local Seating Matters provider for exact
information on what the best specifications are for you and to find out what comes as
standard on your chair. Some of the available combinations and features are outlined
here.
The PHOENIX™ chair provides pressure distribution due to the multi-stretch material
and reflex foam in the seat cushion and offers a great deal of support with the Tilt in
Space mechanism and adjustable lateral supports. In addition, the PHOENIX™ head
support accommodates those with kyphotic postures, hyperextension, or those who
require upper body and head support. The angle of the back can be adjusted to the
Patients liking and the elevating leg rest can be raised and lowered, also increasing
Patient comfort.
The Tilt in Space will allow all angles on the chair to remain the same while tilting
the Patient back, allowing their weight to be spread throughout the body to reduce
pressure on a given point. The push handle and castors allow the Patient to be
transported in the chair and the chair is fully accessible with a Patient lift, reducing
moving and handling significantly. The removable arms allow width adjustment and also
facilitate side transfers. The PHOENIX™ arm height, seat depth and width and foot plate
height and angle are all fully adjustable.
