Postural comfort and support for long-term use

Coraille-E is recommended for people who sit for long periods of time and need proper support. The shell shape helps maintain a more stable position, and the thick cushion contributes to the user's comfort during prolonged sitting.

The contoured, removable headrest provides head support, and the 5-point harness can help maintain a more secure position. For users with reduced postural control, these features can be important in daily use, especially in homes, residential centers, clinics, or recovery spaces.

This electric geriatric chair It should not be chosen solely based on size or maximum weight. It is important to consider the user's posture, mobility level, time spent in the chair daily, need for a belt, head position, leg position and how the caregiver will handle the product.

Footrests and easier transfer

The Vermeiren Coraille-E is equipped with gas spring footrests. These help to make getting in and out of the chair easier as they can be more easily manipulated by the caregiver. Depending on the configuration, the product can also be available with a single footrest.

A electric geriatric chair for care must allow not only comfortable positioning, but also the safest transfers. Before transferring, the brakes must be activated, the chair must be positioned on a stable surface, and the footrests must be adjusted correctly.

Calf and foot supports contribute to a more balanced position of the lower limbs. Proper adjustment can prevent awkward positions and improve comfort during use. If the user has contractures, spasticity, pain or significant positioning difficulties, we recommend individual assessment before configuring the product.

Safety, brakes and proper use

The Coraille-E has large rear wheels and a foot brake, which helps stabilize the chair when the user is seated, transferred or repositioned. The brakes should be used before any transfer, adjustment or any time the chair needs to remain stationary.

This electric geriatric chair must be used according to the manufacturer's recommendations, on suitable, flat and stable surfaces. Although large wheels allow better maneuverability in certain contexts, use must be adapted to the real environment: home, care center, clinic or controlled movements on safe surfaces.

Before use, it is recommended to check the wheels, brakes, remote control, cables, seat belt, headrest, footrests and the condition of the upholstery. The product should not be used to transport heavy objects and should not be used as a car seat. For transport by car, the user must be transferred to a suitable seat and the product must be secured separately.
