Description
The Recliners MultiCare Plus Porter Chair is one of the most adaptable healthcare chairs available, combining advanced pressure management, postural support and tilt in space positioning in a highly configurable seating system.
Designed for both home and healthcare environments, the MultiCare Plus can be tailored to suit a wide range of users. Adjustable seat dimensions, interchangeable pressure care components and multiple positioning options make it particularly suitable for individuals who spend extended periods seated or whose requirements may change over time.
Why Choose the MultiCare Plus Porter Chair?
The MultiCare Plus has been designed to deliver effective pressure redistribution while maintaining correct positioning of the pelvis, trunk and lower limbs. Independent leg elevation and recline functions allow carers to reposition users safely while maintaining comfort throughout the day.
Unlike many standard porter chairs, the MultiCare Plus offers extensive adjustment options including seat width modification, adjustable footplate positioning, interchangeable pressure care cushions and specialist postural accessories.
This flexibility makes it suitable for users with changing clinical needs and for environments where the chair may be used by multiple individuals.

Tilt in Space Positioning System
The integrated tilt in space system allows the chair to change orientation while maintaining consistent body positioning. This helps redistribute pressure more effectively and can improve comfort for users who remain seated for prolonged periods.
Independent leg elevation and back recline provide additional positioning options, helping to maintain appropriate angles at the hips, knees and ankles.
Pressure Care & Postural Support
The MultiCare Plus has been developed with pressure management at its core. Interchangeable seat modules allow the chair to accommodate Posture Visco, gel and air cushion systems depending on individual requirements.
The contoured Posture Visco backrest provides medium risk pressure relief and moderate lateral support to the trunk and lower back. Additional gel and specialist pressure care upgrades are also available.
For users requiring greater positioning support, optional accessories can further enhance trunk, pelvic and lower limb stability.
Adjustable Seating Dimensions
One of the standout features of the MultiCare Plus is its adaptability. Interchangeable arm pads allow the seat width to be altered quickly, making the chair suitable for multi-user environments.
The height and angle adjustable footplate can be configured to accommodate individual leg lengths and restricted ankle movement. Additional foot pads can also be fitted where leg length discrepancies are present.
These adjustment options help achieve a more accurate seating position and improve overall comfort.
Designed for Everyday Practicality
The MultiCare Plus includes a heavy-duty rear grab handle with integrated controls, allowing carers to manoeuvre and reposition the chair easily.
Its interchangeable cushions simplify cleaning and maintenance, while the removable upholstery components help support infection control procedures in healthcare settings.
High-quality 100mm locking castors provide excellent manoeuvrability, with both directional lock and total lock options available.
