POST SURGERY COMFORT & RECOVERY
The Croyde Electric Maternity Chair aids sitting, reclining, and rising at the touch of a button.
It makes the immediate postnatal period more comfortable for women who have restricted mobility, who are experiencing pelvic girdle pain or are recovering from invasive procedures. For women who have undergone a caesarean section, it reduces the use of abdominal muscles and back strain by gently lifting them to a standing position.
The chair has a significant weight capacity of 120kg with an optional upgrade to 160kg (25 stones) to accommodate clients that need more support.
SUPPORTING RELAXATION & OVERNIGHT STAYS
The Croyde Electric Maternity Recliner Chair facilitates overnight stays for partners without additional equipment needing to be brought into the ward. This helps to replicate the home environment and improve bonding with birth partners.
Partners can easily set it up themselves to avoid the need for clinical assistance. The high winged backrest gives neck and shoulder support, as well as providing privacy in bay areas.
It is easy to recline and quick to return to a chair in emergency scenarios.
