Atlanta

The Atlanta is a safe, comfortable chair that provides dignity to people at risk of falling, sliding or injuring themselves.

The Atlanta can accommodate people who are challenging to seat, and is often used for those with Huntington’s Disease, late stage dementia or in a palliative care setting. The chair is low to the ground and very stable, meaning it will not tip due to vigorous involuntary movements or impulsive behaviours. The chair is well padded and has no areas of entrapment, reducing the risk to the user.

The integrated tilt and recline positions the person deep into the chair, helping to reduce sliding. The deep seat position provides a soothing and reassuring environment to promote calm and relaxation. The high arm rests help support those who tire and have difficulty maintaining an upright posture.

The angle adjustable leg rest can be adjusted to position the feet above the user’s hips to help those with swelling in their legs.

Features

The Atlanta has:

Integrated Tilt and Recline for pressure care, safety and comfort of the user. 

Dartex multi stretch pressure management materials throughout all patient contact surfaces. This material is breathable with moisture permeability to ensure that the surface remains dry and comfortable for the user. This material can be wiped down for infection control and hygiene requirements.

Medium to high pressure management cushion, using memory foam. This cushion is removable for cleaning and if you wish to use a different type. An advantage of our memory foam cushions is they do not require maintenance or adjustment for each person, unlike a gel or air cushion. The cushion is also easily replaceable.

Adjustable seat width, elevating leg rest, and sliding footrest allows the chair to fit the size and requirements of the user.

Angle adjustable leg rest for elevating the legs and managing swelling. 

A light weight frame with directional castors to allow the chair to be easily pushed in a straight line or moved throughout a small room.

Case Studies

Atlanta Case Study - Margaret (81yo, Risk of Pressure Injuries)

This is the story of Margaret, an 81-year-old nursing home resident, who was at high risk of developing pressure injuries in her existing chair. The Atlanta was customised specifically for her needs, enabling Margaret to maintain a midline position, reduce the swelling in her lower limbs, gain independence, and no longer rely on pain medication.
