Product Information
The Manton with its Dual Tilt in Space motor maximises the pressure and posture management options for the carer/user with independent backrest and leg rest movement as well as a rise function for ease of standing.
Choose from a range of six removable and interchangeable back cushion styles to complement the choice of eight removable and 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 new users, giving greater longevity of usage.
The chair also comes with optional sliding footplate and seat depth adjustment as well as other accessories.
Its uniqueness lies in the Dual Tilt in Space mechanism combined with the interchangeable pressure management seat and back cushions, with the added advantage of being able to move users around easily, all enabling excellent comfort, postural and pressure management.
The Dual Tilt in Space (DTIS) mechanism make 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 positional options can support people who have problems swallowing as well as those with blood pressure e.g. postural hypotension.
The Manton chair has been designed to support safe manoeuvring and reduce the number of moves required for those clients who can become distressed or have significant pain during hoisting:
Parkinson’s Disease
Motor Neurone disease
End of life clients e.g. cancer
The chair can also be used as part of a 24-hour postural care programme to reduce the risk of skin breakdown and its features also ensure that a user can be repositioned to allow for optional occupational performance, thus allowing an individual to engage in activities they want to do.
The chair can be used with either a mobile or overhead hoist to support safe moving and handling techniques for carers.
This chair can be used in any health environment or for home care and is designed to blend into the décor.

Back Styles & Seat Cushion Options

Just like the back cushions, there are a range of seat cushion styles available, each offering different type of support and benefits.
