FAQ
Common questions
When does this matter?
Setting Up the Room: Where to Place a Care Chair Next to a Bed matters when it changes the actual daily-care workflow. The fit check decides whether it is central to the recommendation or only a secondary detail.
Can Sollevita be more than needed here?
Yes. Sollevita can be more than needed when a simpler lift chair, standard recliner or basic comfort feature is enough. That is why fit is checked before quote.
How much space do we need around the chair?
Plan for the caregiver to stand comfortably on at least one side, keep the transfer side completely clear, and leave a wheeling route to the door. Your supplier can give the exact dimensions of the model so you can mark the space out before it arrives.
Which side of the bed should the chair go on?
On the side the transfer happens, which for someone with one-sided weakness usually means the chair opens toward their stronger side. Also think about where the caregiver needs to stand and where the light and power sockets are.
What do we need to think about for power and charging?
The battery means the chair is not tied to a socket during the day, but it needs a regular charging spot, ideally where the chair rests overnight. Keep the cable routed so nobody walks through it.
