We just all love the chair here at the department. It is so easy to manoeuvre and really helps us overcome the huge patient flow of many different patients
We are looking into the possibility of getting a chair in each of our other examination rooms because the need to handle elderly and larger patients is getting more and more of an issue for the staff
The flexibility of the VELA Mammography chair means we are able to examine both larger and smaller patients whilst ensuring the correct working posture
The chair contributes to handling heavy, elderly or disabled patients faster and safer than without
We feel the patients who use the chair for examinations are more comfortable and relaxed in what can be an uncomfortable and stressful situation
