The Repose Madison has all the benefits of a rise recliner chair but with the added versatility of the large lockable castors for moving people around. The Madison pressure management chair is the only portering chair available from Repose with a riser function for helping clients to stand. This makes it a useful chair for care homes to transport residents from room to room safely but who may need help achieving a standing position for transfers.
The Madison with a Dual Tilt In Space motor provides good posture management options with independent backrest and leg rest movement. The Tilt In Space mechanism maintains a preferred hip angle while redistributing pressure away from the high risk pressure points on the bottom. Fully customisable with a range of pressure cushions, backrest styles and fabrics the Madison is a capable and comfortable chair.
The Madison is a prescription 'comfy' chair able to manage clients at low risk through to high risk of skin breakdown and pressure ulceration. A wide range of pressure cushions including different densities of visco foam, different types of gels and static and dynamic air ensure different risk levels can be managed correctly. Similarly a range of seven removable and interchangeable back cushion styles mean one chair can work for multiple clients or can be future-proofed as a core piece of equipment for many different residents.
The Madison has been designed to be moved within a care environment to reduce the amount of hoists a client has to undergo during the day, but is also great for supporting 'sit to stand' transfers. Typical conditions managed by The Madison comfy chair include general frailty, arthritis, neurological conditions and stroke.
Available in three standard frame sizes The Madison can accommodate clients with hip widths of 17" up to 21" and is manufactured with a universal seat height of 19". An optional sliding footplate ensures a stable foot platform during transit while large castors ensure easy transition across door thresholds.
