Designed to provide dignity to patients and destigmatize the experience, Ellie is composed of biophilic, soft contours—nature’s flow and erosion lines—to relate with our human nature in a clinical environment that does not. Human-centered features like a negative inclined footrest and molded ergonomic armrests facilitate sit-to-stand dignity and safety, and Ellie’s the molded embrace back integrates passive lateral support to help patients maintain an upright healthy posture without visual lateral supports, de-stigmatizing and preserving patient dignity while facilitating better respiration and blood oxygenation.
