Petite Sorrento

The Petite Sorrento lends itself easily to changing user needs and is, above all else, the ultimate in comfort for children with complex medical conditions.

The Petite Sorrento is a simple to operate and functional chair which is designed to improve and maximise comfort as well as provide postural support and pressure management.

With its adaptability and effortless adjustability, the Petite Sorrento paediatric chair lends itself easily to the needs of growing children or those with changing needs meaning their comfort, posture and pressure management remain uncompromised.  The Petite Sorrento can also be re-adjusted to suit the needs of a new user, which facilities its use in multi-user settings.

Tilt in space can be used to improve posture, head control and redistribute pressure. This can also be converted to include forward tilt for self-transferring situations. The adjustable back angle recline will accommodate children with limited hip flexion and, when used in combination with tilt in space, it can prevent sliding from the chair.

Optional lateral supports and supportive pillows can help to maintain or improve midline posture and facilitate function and engagement in activities of daily living, such as eating and communicating and playing.  The correct use of these features and accessories can also reduce common problems such as falling to the side when seated.

Features

The Petite Sorrento has:

Tilt in space to allow for re-positioning for pressure care and comfort of the user. Elevating leg rest and recline are also standard.

Dartex multi stretch pressure management materials throughout all patient contact surfaces. This material is breathable with moisture permeability to ensure that the surface remains dry and comfortable for the user. This material can be wiped down for infection control and hygiene requirements.

Medium to high pressure management cushion, using memory foam. This cushion is removable for cleaning and if you wish to use a different type. An advantage of our memory foam cushions is they do not require maintenance or adjustment for each person, unlike a gel or air cushion. The cushion is also easily replaceable.

Adjustable seat width, foot plate height and seat depth allows the chair to fit the size and requirements of the user.

Available in manual or electric combinations.
