Why the Medicare and not the Malmo seat?
- With the Medicare (2 motor version), the foot valve can be higher and the backrest lower than the Malmo. This makes it more suitable as a sleeping chair.
- With Medicare you can hold the controls in your hands. The buttons light up when pressed.
- Thanks to the wheels, you can move it easily, which is a must for some residential care centers.
Most frequently asked question: do I choose Medicare with 1 engine or 2 engines?
- If the user is slightly older and simple operation is essential, choose standard Medicare as described below.
- If the user is of sound mind: choose the Medicare with 2 engines . The extra options are definitely worth the extra cost. The extra motor ensures that you can operate the foot section and backrest separately or together. The version with 2 motors is slightly sturdier and the motors are slightly more powerful.
Medicare with 1 engine
With a 1-motor stand-up chair, 1 motor does all the work: The backrest and leg support simultaneously tilt to a standing or sitting position and back again. You can also put this 1-motor stand-up chair in a comfortable lying position. This seat is very easy to operate with just 2 buttons.
Important to know: The back and leg rest cannot be operated separately.
Recommended up to a maximum of 85 kg.
