Accompanying Chair (Hospital Attendant Chair)

The Accompanying Chair, also known as a Hospital Attendant Chair, Companion Chair or Attendant Sleeper Chair, is hospital furniture designed to provide comfortable seating and resting accommodation for caregivers, relatives and attendants staying with patients. A major advantage of the common foldable design is its chair-to-bed functionality. During the day, it occupies relatively little ward space as a chair; when required, it can unfold into a temporary sleeping surface for an attendant staying overnight. Hospital versions commonly feature padded sections, armrests, a durable supporting frame and wheels or castors to assist with positioning. Materials and specifications vary by manufacturer and model.
