The Brooklyn with its single tilt in space recline only mechanism provides pressure and posture management options for the carer and is ideal as part of a 24-hour postal care programme. Choose from a range of seven removable and interchangeable back cushion styles is to complement the choice of ten removable interchangeable seat cushions-  each option being designed with different postural and pressure management qualities. These interchangeable options ensure that the chair can be easily adapted over time for changing conditions or users, giving greater longevity of usage.

This single tilt in space mechanism makes this chair ideal for clients with changing and deteriorating neurological conditions. It allows for multi positioning of the legs to reduce oedema and fluid retention, leading to increased comfort. The seat to back angle remains the same whilst the whole seating system is tilted backwards allowing the angle of the hips, knees and ankles to remain unaffected during this movement. It also reduces the weight on the ischial tuberosities and redistributes the weight through the back. 

The Brooklyn has been designed to be moved around a care environment to reduce the amount of moves a client has to make but to also encourage independence by supporting  sit to stand transfers and rest and relaxation. The chair can be easily altered to meet the individual needs: 

• Frail elderly
• Rhemumatoid arthritis
• Neurological conditions 
• Stroke
