MJM Standard 18" Reclining Geri-Chair – 3-Position Healthcare-Grade Mobile Recliner (300 lb Capacity)

MJM Standard 18" 3-Position Reclining Geri-Chair: Durable Patient Seating and Pressure Relief for Long-Term Care Facilities

Extended patient seating in long-term care facilities, rehabilitation departments, and hospital settings introduces complex challenges regarding skin breakdown, patient sliding, and ergonomic support. The MJM Standard 18" 3-Position Reclining Geri-Chair resolves these critical operational vulnerabilities by pairing a reinforced, healthcare-grade polymer chassis with multi-position adjustments. This multi-functional mobile clinical recliner transitions seamlessly across three distinct mechanical configurations—upright, TV recline, and full recline allowing clinicians to tailor positioning to meet individual therapeutic or therapeutic comfort requirements.

Architected with an internal seat width of 18 inches and a robust 300-pound weight capacity, this Geri-chair safely accommodates most average-height adult residents. To mitigate the development of pressure injuries (decubitus ulcers), the chair integrates an elevated, padded leg rest that optimizes circulatory return while properly distributing patient weight off of the lower extremities. The modular backrest and leg support systems work in tandem with a built-in seat wedge design feature, effectively eliminating forward shear forces and ensuring that the patient remains safely centered within the chair without sliding down over hours of use.

Key Benefits:

• 3-Position Recline Versatility: Transitions smoothly across three standard therapeutic angles to fulfill varied patient positioning, eating, resting, and clinical observation protocols.
• Elevated Padded Leg Rest: Delivers specialized pressure relief and helps enhance venous circulation, reducing the operational risks associated with long-term static sitting.
• Anti-Bacterial Solid Vinyl: Wrapped in high-tensile, flame-resistant, antimicrobial fabric that stands up to harsh, institutional-grade sanitizing chemicals without tearing.
• Anti-Slip Integrated Wedge: Features a built-in wedge contour underneath the seat cushion that mechanically blocks patients from sliding forward or out of position.
• Healthcare-Grade Frame: Fabricated from heavily reinforced schedule 40 PVC that will not rust, dent, scratch, or chip, drastically extending the service life of fleet equipment.
• Solid Base Foundation: Engineered with a rigid, non-sag base directly below the padding system to definitively prevent the occupant from bottoming out over years of deployment.
