11. Using the chair
When using the chair, the following points
must be adhered to:
Before use, it must be assured that the chair is in a
proper condition for safe use.
If necessary, depending on the physical and
strength limitations of the user (patient’s ability to
move and muscle strength), sitting down and
getting up should not be done without
assistance from a care worker. The chair may
not be used for long patient transport times.
11.1 Sitting down
Before sitting down in the chair, be sure it is
secured against slipping away (see: 11.9) and
tipping over, that the armrests are locked into
position, that the shower/commode seat is properly
mounted, and that the footrests are folded away to
the side or folded up.
The patient should stand as
closely as possible near the
chair. He should then sit down
slowly on the seat while
supporting himself on both
armrests.
If this is not possible due to his
physical limitations, then a
care-worker must assist him. If
necessary a patient lifter may
have to be used.
Caution – danger of falling!
To prevent the patient from
falling out of the chair, be sure
the
patient
is
seated
completely on the chair, and
not just on the edge.
For transporting the patient, be
sure he is leaned back against
the seat back and be sure he
uses the footrests.
11.2 Getting up
Before getting up, be sure the chair is stable and
secured against slipping away (see: 11.9) and
tipping over, that the armrests are locked in
position, and the footrests are folded away to the
side or folded up.
The patient should then move his body forward
until his feet are flat on the floor.
The patient must then place
both hands on the armrests
and slowly lift himself up.
The patient must not lean too
far forwards, in order to avoid
falling.
The patient should have the
care worker assist him when
getting up.
