LPA Medical Thera-Glide® Oasis Specialty Healthcare Chair
The LPA Medical Thera-Glide® Oasis is a fully upholstered specialty healthcare seating system designed specifically for clinical environments where uncompromising infection control meets premium patient comfort. Available in both a self-locking glider configuration and a fixed stationary configuration, the Oasis series features smooth, accessible surfaces with minimized seams to simplify strict sanitization protocols. Its integrated weight-activated safety lock automatically immobilizes the chair during user transfers, restoring peaceful, therapeutic movement once the resident is fully seated to help reduce cognitive agitation and enhance patient autonomy.
