Melrose Porter Healthcare Chair by Repose Healthcare: Ultimate Comfort and Postural Support

Designed for individuals with neurological and postural conditions, the Melrose Porter Healthcare Chair is the perfect solution for providing exceptional comfort, pressure management, and adaptable support for those in need of long-term care. Whether you are managing Parkinson’s disease, Motor Neurone disease, or other life-limiting conditions, this chair has been expertly engineered to meet the unique needs of individuals who require 24-hour postural care.

Key Features:

• Tilt in Space and Independent Recline Mechanisms: The Melrose Porter offers a unique combination of Tilt in Space (TIS) and independent backrest recline and leg rest adjustments. This allows carers to easily adjust the user’s position throughout the day, ensuring optimal comfort and pressure relief while promoting better posture and circulation. Whether it's reducing the risk of pressure sores or improving muscular control, the adjustable system enhances both comfort and safety.

• Pressure and Postural Management: Tailored for users with significant postural needs, the Melrose Porter is a vital tool in managing conditions that affect skin integrity and posture. The chair works to redistribute pressure, alleviating discomfort, improving respiration, and facilitating specific skin care tasks. Its versatility allows for custom adjustments, including seat depth, width, and a range of cushion options to meet individual needs.

• Highly Adaptable for Safe Transfers: The Melrose Porter supports safe moving and handling practices, compatible with both mobile and overhead hoists. Its design helps carers ensure proper and safe transfers, reducing strain and preventing injury.

• Customizable Cushions and Adjustments: Featuring a choice of interchangeable back and seat cushions, the Melrose chair adapts to a user’s evolving needs. Adjust the firmness, positioning, and support with ease to maintain comfort and manage pressure over time. For added flexibility, all cushions are removable, allowing for cleaning and replacement as needed.

• Contoured Leg Rest for Enhanced Comfort: The contoured leg rest helps prevent the legs from splaying and ensures added comfort, with removable covers for easy maintenance. In addition, the footplate can be adjusted in height and angle to accommodate fixed flexion, offering support for users with drop foot.

• Highly Durable and Easy to Move: The Melrose Porter is built with heavy-duty castors, including lockable rear ones for stability and control. The durable push handle, equipped with rubber grips, ensures smooth movement and ease of transportation.
