Chairs/Configura Rise and Recline
Previous situation:
Worcestershire County Council was providing a basic, single motor rise and recline chair without any adjustability, which was failing to meet the needs of many of its service users. A high proportion of the budget was being spent on expensive bespoke chairs, partly due to the lack of functionality in the basic chair, which were difficult to re-issue and tended to gather dust in stores. A new seating solution was required!
Solution:
Worcestershire replaced their basic chair with Configura Rise and Recline and included Configura Care and Configura Bariatric as ‘standard specials’.
Implementation:
Training sessions were delivered for all OTs in Worcestershire and for stores staff covering cleaning, repair and maintenance.
