Product Description
The Heron is a state of the art toilet and bathing chair. The simple design and clean appearance conceal multiple features that improve both the user and carer experience.
The Heron sets new standards for users with special needs for positioning. The seat is ergonomically correct, meaning it can be tilted and the back reclined without compromise for the user. Clever design means that during recline, the anatomical pivot point at the axis of the hips is maintained. This provides the user more comfort when seated.
The Heron can be used freestanding with a pan, directly over the toilet or as a bathing chair in the shower. The smooth height, tilt and recline functions ensure optimum working conditions for the carer. To maintain safety, the Heron is equipped with four lockable casters.
The Heron is delivered with a narrow backrest for freedom of movement. For added support and comfort, swing-away side supports or upholstered sides which support the shoulders, can be added. The Heron comes in one size and is now also available in a power model.
