Supports That Work Together
The HealthSmart 360 Degree Swivel Seat Cushion is a personal mobility and transfer assistive technology aid designed to facilitate smooth, pivot-assisted transitions between sitting and standing. For NDIS participants living with limited mobility, arthritis, spinal stiffness, hip or knee replacements, or neurological impairments, the twisting and pivoting motions required to enter or exit vehicles, chairs, and mobility scooters can cause substantial joint strain, pain, and loss of balance. This rotating seat cushion converts stationary seating into a dynamic swivel platform, allowing users to swing their legs and torso smoothly without torquing the spine or hips.
Engineered with a compact 12.5-inch (31.8 cm) diameter and a 1.375-inch (3.5 cm) profile, the cushion fits comfortably into deep vehicle bucket seats, office chairs, dining chairs, and scooter seats. It features high-grade supportive foam that helps distribute seated pressure across the lower back and tailbone while providing a slight elevation to assist with standing up. A flexible, non-skid base contours to seating surfaces to prevent unwanted shifting during transfers. With a robust weight capacity supporting up to 300 lbs (136 kg) and a removable, machine-washable fabric cover in a modern black and grey stripe design, this cushion delivers practical, hygienic daily mobility support.
How This Device Supports NDIS Participants
- Safe Pivot Transfers: Allows smooth 360-degree rotation to assist participants in swinging their legs into and out of car doors and chairs without hazardous twisting motions.
- Joint & Spinal Strain Reduction: Minimises rotational torque on the lumbar spine, hips, knees, and pelvis during sit-to-stand transitions, alleviating transfer pain.
- Fall Prevention & Stability: Non-skid contoured base holds firmly to seat upholstery, providing a stable foundation that reduces sliding and transfer-related fall risks.
