The entire seat is divided into 4 sections. Each can be inflated as needed.

I have a ROHO Quad cushion.  The air firmness in each section can be adjusted.

Hi All,
   Has anybody ever gotten a specialty Roho seat cushion? As you may, or 
may 
not know, I've been stuck in bed since November because of a chronic sore on my 
right issum (sp) area. I called Roho and asked if they have any cushion that 
dose not have any "cells" in the issum area. They told me that they make 
"specialty cushions". She said " … you would contact your vendor and work 
through them to properly order the specialty cushion. The cost would be under 
$500."
  Has anybody ever dose this through Roho?Bobbie

Sounds great Bobbie, That sounds like a good deal. I use a Quattro high-profile 
.Love it. I have been on since 1978 I have duct tape some of the cells down 
when I had a sore.
I know they made specialty cushions from RohOknow they have battery operated 
cushions.

Bobbie,

I am on a Roho Contour Select. It is a cushion with air cells but the area of 
the cushion where your Ishialls would be is cut out so your boney protuberances 
are suspended in the cutout.
I purchased the cushion from Spinlife.com. They help with the paperwork for 
insurance.

Re: [QUAD-L] Standing wheelchair' anyone have one ? If so pros and cons?

2013-01-25 Thread wheelchair
I personally hope that in everyone's life, they have the opportunity to try 
 out a standing wheelchair. Some of the benefits can be overwhelming.   
However, I usually advise that a Standing Evaluation, with an Occupational  
Therapist to determine if and how long one can stand, vertical.  Some with  low 
blood pressure may pass out with a quick stand.  Some can not operate a  
manual stander because of strength issues.  A motorized stander might work  
better then a manual unit.  By all means, if you meet the perimeters... Go  
For It.
Best Wishes
