Evacuation Transit Chair Mk 2 with Four Wheels

According to the Regulatory Reform (Fire Safety) Order 2005, there must be an evacuation plan in place for everyone who may potentially be in a building, including those with restricted mobility (e.g. those who are pregnant or have a disability or injury). There is also the added complication of transferring injured patients from an ambulance to a hospital even if there is not an emergency. In these cases, the Evacuation Transit Chair Mk 2 with Four Wheels is the solution.

With four wheels rather than the previous two, the chair doubles as an evacuation chair and a wheelchair. The Transit Chair Mk 2 can be carried up and down stairs if required, and it can also be used as a temporary wheelchair along flat surfaces. Highly manoeuvrable and extremely lightweight, the chair is ideal if you need to be able to transport patients quickly and safely.

Aids Evacuation

Evacuation chairs are primarily used to transport users across level surfaces to a place of safety.  The Evacuation Transit Chair is designed to lift and carry your patient up and down stairs.

Basement areas can be tricky environments to evacuate clients from, particularly if there isn't a lift that can be used safely in an emergency. If an exit point can only be reached by taking the stairs, the Transit Chair Mk 2 is an excellent way of aiding evacuation in an emergency.
