Lento Neuro Patient Care Chair

What makes the Lento Neuro special?

Calming sensation

The uniquely comfortable 'cocoon' shaped seat gives the sensation of being hugged, making the user feel extremely safe and secure which can in turn reduce ataxic movements, and greatly improve mental health.

Seamless and safe design

The seamless design of the Lento Neuro makes it free from recesses or possible areas of entrapment, always keeping people with involuntary movements safe. This is added to by the detachable and channelled footrest (an optional additional item), which helps keep the legs in position and align the person centrally in the chair, supporting their full body profile.

Widely adjustable

The chair width, depth and angle adjustment allows it to be adapted to each individual person’s needs as their condition changes over time. It also means it can be used in multi-user care environments where several low mobility patients could be using the chair over time.

Front pivot tilt in space

The tilt in space enables the user to comfortably lie back and have a good sleep. The comfort offered by this chair meant that our trial user with Huntington’s Disease, based at Vida Healthcare’s Huntington’s Unit in Harrogate, could get a full high quality night’s sleep every night in the chair, more than when she was in her bed! This comfort is added to by the adjustable back angle, from 110 to 125 degrees.

Various foot rest options

The Lento Neuro comes with a choice of optional extra footrests, including the Foot Block or the Foot Plate. The Foot Block is cushioned for comfort and allows the user to be able to extend their legs out in front of them. It has four strong braked castors and channelled cushions for maximum support, minimising the sliding of legs. The Foot Plate is a low plate that ensures constant contact with the bottom of the user's feet. The footrests fasten securely and can be wheeled with the chair, or detached when not in use.

Extremely durable

The deliberately overengineered solid steel frame on the Lento Neuro is mounted on a wide wheelbase with braked castors, ensuring maximum stability for people with severe involuntary movements. With the footrest attached, this chair boasts a total of 8 strong castors!

Considered pressure relief

The soft four way stretch Dartex material (which is a medical fabric developed for the NHS) to all contact surfaces keeps the skin cool and hydrated, protecting the surface of the skin, preventing pressure sores. We also have different options available for the filling of our cushions, from Visco Foam for medium risk users up to alternating air pillows for those at very high risk.

Ideal for infection control

Our Lento Neuro comes in two different versions - the hospital spec or the community spec. The hospital version comes with magnetic closures that adhere to strict hospital and clinical hygiene standards, whereas the community spec has velcro closures as standard. Both specifications have cushion covers that can be fully removed for machine washing and can withstand rigorous wiping with regular detergents.

Multiple accessory and backrest options

We have a range of options available to help the user sit comfortably. Whether it's a spinal alignment cushion, a horseshoe headrest or a change to the backrest, we have everything you could need.
