Medical Recliners with Heat

Benefits of Medical Recliners with Heat
For patients who receive dialysis treatment and infusion therapy, or those recovering from a surgical procedure, being too cold is a common complaint. The general solution is to raise the room temperature; however, raising the thermostat often results in an uncomfortable working environment for caregivers and staff. The solution: Medical Recliners equipped with Heat.

A Medical Recliner with a heated seating surface, an upper back pad, and a lower back cushion works best. The heater should have a minimum of two settings – high and low – and the controls should be conveniently located allowing ease of use for both patients and medical staff.

The Heat Option is a convenience and does increase the cost of the recliner; however, it is important to consider the following benefits that will lead to long term cost savings from the use of heated Medical Recliners:

•Patients are in control of their own comfort by being able to adjust the heat themselves freeing staff for other duties and responsibilities.
•Therapeutically, a patient who is comfortable and relaxed is more receptive to treatment allowing for procedures to be completed quicker, and faster recovery times which save you money.
•The environment can be kept at a temperature that the medical staff can work comfortably in making them more productive.
•Fewer requests for multiple blankets from patients saving on linen costs.
•Medical recliners with heat give your facility a competitive edge.
