Air Chair
The Apollo Air Chair is a versatile seating solution designed specifically for individuals at medium to high risk of developing pressure ulcers. With a focus on effective pressure relief, it features a manual air cushion pressure system that evenly distributes pressure across the body, avoiding the heat build-up and excessive sweating often associated with foam or water-based systems. Its ergonomic and practical design ensures easy manoeuvrability and maintenance, ideal for acute care, hospice, and homecare settings. The patented design enables a true lay-flat position, enhancing comfort and making it suitable for individuals with dementia by reducing the risk of falling forward. Its exceptional cushioning and pressure distribution also allow it to double as a bed, minimising the need for multiple transfers. When transfers are necessary, the side panels conveniently swing down, offering carers better access to the user. For optimal comfort and hygiene, the Apollo Air Chair is upholstered with genuine Dartex Fabric, a highly durable material compatible with most cleaning solutions, ensuring high levels of cleanliness and safety. Note: From Jan 2025 these come with dark blue outer & black inner material.
