How can the AlphaCare help individuals?
The AlphaCare is our all-new comfortable yet robust seating system, developed with a key emphasis on safety and stability. The chair has been designed for individuals with postural instability and significant movements, such as those with Huntingtons disease, dementia, and other neurological and neuromuscular conditions, in all health and social care settings.
Its linked seat and back recline function adjusts the seat angle as the back reclines, promoting postural stability and pelvic positioning. The contoured back supports a midline position, aiding physiological function and engagement. Supportive armrests provide lateral feedback for added security. The ergonomic block leg rest supports the lower limbs, promoting comfort and energy conservation. The leg rest block, secured by the intuitive CareFlex EasySecure system, is easily removable for transfers and activities. Reflexion(R) foam in the seat and leg rest also addresses the pressure care needs of individuals with limited movement.
The AlphaCare underwent a rigorous two-year trial to ensure it met the highest standards of safety, stability, and seating tolerance. This extensive testing period allowed for design refinements based on user feedback and safety assessments. The final design includes advanced features that ensure unmatched user safety and stability, making the AlphaCare a revolutionary option for those with specialised postural care needs in sitting.
