Great for most environments

Most of the medical recliners we sell here are known by a variety of names but can be used in any environment, whether it be a home, a hospital, a clinic or a long-term care facility. So don't let the name fool you. However, if you're looking for a recliner for clinics, we recommend the Invacare Clinical Chair or this clinical chair by Drive.
