Facility Recliners & Positioning Chairs for Care Settings

Facility Recliners That Do More Than Recline

Care facilities buy recliners to get residents out of bed and keep them comfortable for hours. A standard lift chair or geri recliner does part of that job. A facility recliner built on a Broda positioning frame does the rest: it tilts in space to relieve pressure, reclines for rest, moves on large wheels or casters, and stands up to years of daily use and cleaning.

ADL Solutions is a direct Broda reseller. We supply facility recliners and seating to skilled nursing facilities, hospices, memory care communities, behavioral health hospitals and rehab units, and we ship nationwide, from one chair to a full-building replacement.

Two Kinds of Facility Recliner

  • Positioning recliners (Broda Midline, Synthesis, Elite, Centric and the bariatric Vanguard) give long-term care and hospice residents tilt and recline in a mobile chair that staff can move room to room.
  • Auto-locking gliders (Broda Tranquille, and Aspire for pediatrics) give behavioral health and memory care a calming gliding motion that locks automatically when the person stands, built to be durable and safe in high-acuity units.

What Facility Buyers Ask For

Infection control and wipe-down upholstery, restraint-free positioning, fall reduction, staff-friendly controls, long warranties and parts availability. Broda's Comfort Tension Seating® and steel frames are designed for exactly that. Tell us your unit mix and we will recommend models and quantities.

Volume and Multi-Site Orders

We quote multi-unit, multi-building and system-wide orders, coordinate delivery schedules across sites, and ship anywhere in the United States. Arizona facilities can add on-site delivery, setup and staff training from our own crew.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best recliner for a nursing home?

For residents who cannot reposition themselves, a tilt-and-recline positioning chair is safer than a standard recliner, because tilt relieves pressure without the sliding that recline alone causes.

Do you supply behavioral health seating?

Yes. The Broda Tranquille and Aspire auto-locking gliders are built for behavioral health and pediatric settings.

Do you ship facility orders nationally?

Yes. We ship nationwide and quote orders of any size.
