We are getting older than ever before, and that’s nothing short of amazing. For many of us, however, there comes the point in life when our bodies can’t do the same things as when we were younger. And that’s when senior chairs come in handy.

Regain your mobility with a VELA Chair

A VELA Chair for the elderly helps with:

Better balance makes you want to do more

When you feel tired, it’s worth sitting down on a safe chair with a brake. This means you can continue your activity without losing your balance.

Safety and security

You get a chair that you can walk/push around while sitting down. This means increased mobility where you can move around safely at home without fear of falling – and you have two free hands for your task.

Increased independence

A safe, stable and mobile chair make it easier to get started with, for example, light cleaning and cooking. Getting dressed and visiting the toilet is also more accessible, as the chair supports you, so you can save your strength and make your energy last longer.

Help for standing up

The chair helps you get up into a standing position. It has an electric lift so that you can get up with minimal effort.

VELA offers a mobility chair for elderly and seniors

One benefit of using a VELA chair as a mobility aid for the elderly is that it can protect you from falling. You can sit down and walk/push yourself around wherever you want. You can lower the seat height of your chair, so that you can reach the floor with your feet. 

This means you can walk the mobility chair for elderly around your home. Walk from your kitchen and into your living room, bedroom or bathroom while sitting down. If you want to move from your chair to the sofa, lock the brake on the chair, tilt the armrest to the side and just slide off the chair.

Specialist chairs: Reach high and low with an electric lift

If you’re looking for specialist chairs for the elderly, this is where you’ll find them. 

A specialist chair with an electric lift is for those who are quickly drained of energy. The chair moves up and down at the touch of a button, so you can reach things on the top shelf or at the bottom of the cupboard. 

It also makes it easier to get the right working height by the oven, and you can sit safely and securely and use both hands.

An aid that helps you get up easily

The VELA chair is designed to provide seniors with the stability and support needed to remain active and independent throughout the day. Its sturdy base and ergonomic design make it an ideal choice for those who require assistance with mobility or balance, enabling seniors to carry out everyday tasks safely and comfortably.

Picture this: It’s time to prepare your morning tea. The electric lift allows you to sit comfortably while reaching for cups or stirring your tea at the counter. With its stable wheels and central brake, you can easily move between the table and the sink, ensuring every part of your routine feels secure and effortless. This versatility makes the chair an invaluable aid for seniors navigating their day with ease and confidence.

A cooking chair for the elderly – cook and bake with ease while seated

For those who love cooking and baking but struggle with standing for long periods, the VELA Chair offers a practical and comfortable solution. This cooking chair for the elderly provides stability, mobility, and safety, allowing you to prepare meals and bake your favourite treats while seated. The chair’s secure brake ensures you remain steady as you mix ingredients, roll out dough, or take trays in and out of the oven. With its height-adjustable seat, you can effortlessly reach worktops, cupboards, and kitchen appliances without overstraining. Whether you are preparing a family meal or indulging in a bit of home baking, the VELA Chair makes kitchen tasks more enjoyable and accessible.

Reach high and low surfaces with the raising/lowering function

This chair for seniors has an electric raising/lowering function, which allows you to reach the bottom drawers and top shelves in the cupboards at the touch of a button. You never compromise on safety, as the chair has a safe central brake that is easy to use.

When your legs fail you

Walking difficulties become a more significant issue the older we get. Our legs have carried us through a long life, and now they’re getting tired. Therefore, the right mobility aid for the elderly – or our disability chairs for adults – can provide excellent relief and help in everyday life. 

Our chairs have an excellent brake that keeps you safe when adjusting the height of the chair. Lock the chair and raise the seat to the desired height. The chair is also great support while you get dressed, brush your teeth or while cooking. 

A senior chair from VELA gives your legs a well-deserved break while you attend to other chores with your hands.

Effortless movement with electric drive

For those who need extra assistance moving around the home, the VELA Chair with Power Wheels offers an innovative mobility solution. With the motorised chair for seniors, you can move smoothly from room to room without the need for manual pushing or walking assistance. The intuitive controls make it easy to navigate, whether you are preparing a meal in the kitchen, tidying up the living room, or getting from your bedroom to the bathroom. The combination of a safe braking system and electric walking assistance ensures both stability and effortless movement, giving you greater independence in your daily routine. Designed for comfort and convenience, the VELA Chair with Power Wheels empowers you to stay active and mobile with minimal effort.

Independence with aid for the elderly

Even though our bodies age, it doesn’t mean our minds have to. It can therefore be hard to accept that your body no longer obeys your every command. This is especially hard if you get to a point in life when you need daily help. 

An aid for the elderly may mean that you don’t need outside help to the same extent. You get your independence back.

A supportive chair for older people

Finding the right chair for old people can make everyday activities much easier and more comfortable. Chairs for older people should provide stability, support, and mobility to help with tasks such as cooking, cleaning, and moving around the home. VELA offers chairs for elderly individuals who want to maintain their independence while ensuring safety and ease of movement. With adjustable height, a secure braking system, and a comfortable seat, chairs for older people from VELA are designed to meet the needs of those who require extra support in their daily routines. Whether you need assistance getting up, reaching high or low, or simply moving from room to room, a VELA chair helps you stay active while reducing strain and fatigue.
