Cortech Healthcare have spent countless research and development hours ensuring that they meet each one of the following criteria at a standard that is entirely unique in the assistive technology marketplace:
- Ease of use
- Lightweight
- Fewer 'lifting' injuries for carers
- Reduced labour input
- Superlative hygiene and sterility
Safer for a single carer
Increase user independence, whilst increasing the opportunity for safe, single-handed care.
Built for user comfort
The custom made soft PU seat and back provides comfort and support for the user. A lap belt is provided for user security whilst tilted or in motion.
Adjustable support settings
Adjustable footrests and a headrest provide support for feet and the head while reclining in the shower function, and when mobile. The footrests can also be fitted with leg straps for extra support.
Controlled via Bluetooth handset
The handset has pre-programmable buttons to achieve standard repeatable positioning for an individual user.
Shower assist function
Komodo reclines the chair backwards to -37 degrees, allowing the carer to wash and rinse the user in a position that is comfortable for both parties.
Stand assist function
Komodo assists the user, capable of weight bearing, in standing, with slow movements that help re-engage the correct leg muscles, whilst ensuring the carer does not take the full weight of the patient.
