Drop-down armrest
Drop-down armrests can be fitted on either the left or right-hand side of compatible chairs, to facilitate the use of slings and making access easier.
Facilitating easy transfers
Drop-down armrests can help facilitate sideways transfers, for example using a slideboard. This works particularly well when used with the flat rise option on the chair.
The Configura Advance drop-down armrest can be set to three different heights, to accommodate different service users’ needs.
Please note these armrests should not be used for service users who need to press down on the armrests for transfers.
