The highly anticipated item is ideal for general healthcare and senior living facilities.
KITCHENER, ON – Stance Healthcare, a furniture designer and manufacturer specializing in general healthcare and Behavioral Health settings, announces the Rise Adjustable Dining Room Table. This piece is designed to cater to healthcare and senior living facilities' unique needs. This re-imagined table offers exceptional functionality, durability, and aesthetic appeal.
The Rise Adjustable Dining Room Table boasts impressive features that enhance usability and accessibility. The table features a 7" height adjustment capability, and individuals can easily customize the table's height to their desired comfort level. The paddle activation mechanism ensures smooth adjustments, accommodating users of all abilities. In addition, the table's X-base is equipped with adjustable nylon glides, providing stability on various surfaces.
The Rise Adjustable Dining Room Table is constructed using multi-gauge powder-coated steel, ensuring durability and longevity. Its frame incorporates a 5" diameter and 3 ½' telescoping steel column, providing stability and strength. In addition, the frame construction is meticulously crafted to ensure a robust structure that withstands the rigors of daily use.
The top materials of the Rise Adjustable Dining Room Table are carefully chosen to offer functionality and visual appeal. The polyurethane no-drip edge, with a top thickness of 1 ¼", provides a seamless and hygienic surface resistant to spills. The urethane edge is molded around a 1 ⅛" laminated top, offering a sleek and modern profile. Alternatively, the table is also available with a PVC or wood edge top, both with a thickness of 1" for a classic look.
Height adjustment for the Rise Adjustable Dining Room Table is achieved using high-quality hardware, including a 300n or 350n gas spring, depending on the top style. The hardware ensures smooth and controlled movement, allowing users to modify the table's height to their desired position easily.

Empowering Patients Through Design: Innovations in Healthcare FurnitureWednesday, September 6, 2023

Patient-Centered Design: Empowering Individuals in Their Healing Journey
In the ever-evolving world of healthcare, the importance of creating healing environments is becoming increasingly recognized. Patients’ well-being, comfort, and recovery are influenced by the design of healthcare facilities and the furniture within them. In this blog, we will explore the latest trends and innovations in the healthcare furniture industry that prioritize patient comfort, well-being, and the overall functionality of clinical spaces.
1. Hospitalized Patient Sleep Quality: Sleep quality is a crucial aspect of patient recovery. Studies show hospitalized patients often report poor sleep due to lights, noise, and discomfort. Healthcare facilities strive to create “healing environments” that address these issues. Investing in comfortable beds, ensuring privacy, and providing acoustic comfort contribute to improved patient sleep quality. Single rooms are also preferred over multioccupancy rooms as they have been statistically shown to promote longer and better sleep. 2. Designing for Well-Being: Patients desire comforting and joyful environments that enable autonomy and control. Supportive healthcare design incorporates a sense of control, social support, and positive distractions. Access to nature is recognized as a stress-reducing and comforting factor, leading to an emphasis on incorporating nature-related design elements in healing spaces. Creating a sense of familiarity in an otherwise foreign environment helps patients feel more at ease.
3. Designing Pediatric Rooms: Pediatric patients require specialized care and attention to their unique needs. Designing pediatric rooms involves:
Attention to sensory elements, such as soothing colors and interactive furniture, is crucial in creating a child-friendly environment.
4. Transforming Clinical Spaces: Healthcare facilities are shifting their focus from purely clinical spaces to healing environments. This involves incorporating more natural light, using softer lighting, and creating zen spaces and gardens. Comfortable furniture, soft color palettes, and quality acoustics are introduced to promote relaxation and reduce patient stress.

2. Empowering Patients:

The look of wood with extreme durability In a healthcare environment, surface areas like table tops and arm caps are a critical design aspect of a given space – they can affect everything from an area’s safety and cleanability, to its aesthetics and comfort. Increasingly in the post-COVID era, surface finish selections are a top consideration for designers and facility planners when specifying products for healthcare.

Stance Has The Finishes To Fit Any SpaceTuesday, January 3, 2023

How Stance Refreshed Its Finishes To Keep Its Products Current
Stance Healthcare and Stance Behavioral Health have spent the past year refining and refreshing the finishes they offer in order to stay current and provide customers with choices. By providing more variety and more relevance in terms of finishes, Stance is better suited to fit the needs of any type of healthcare space.
Some of the new finishes were selected with specific spaces in mind. For instance, the new Rainbow Collection of Marmoleum finishes is bright, lively, and inviting, making them perfect for pediatric spaces. In addition to the Marmoleum Rainbow Collection, Stance also updated its standard Marmoleum collection to include 8 distinct finishes – Silt Stone, Withered Prairie, Red Horse, Cliffs of Moher, Trace of Nature, Urban Silver, Desert Sand, and Welsh Moor. The Standard and Rainbow Marmoleum finishes are available on the Resilia and Pavilion tables, available for both Healthcare and Behavioral Health.
Stance also recently refreshed its offering of Corian® solid surface finishes. The company discontinued a couple of finishes but added 4 new ones to bring the number of Corian® solid surface finishes up to 8. They include Glacier White, Camera White, Bisque, Linen, Pearl Gray, Silver Gray, Dove, and Canyon.
Stance’s commitment to updating its finishes extended into its wood, laminate, and thermofoil offerings as well. Earlier this year Stance added four new finish colors to its portfolio of wood, laminate, and thermofoil. The new finish colors – Aria, White Chocolate, Dolce Vita, and Palomino – add even more style and versatility to our robust collection of laminate finishes. Further, Stance’s new color options will match across all types of finishes – a unique offering in the healthcare furniture marketplace. (While other furniture makers may offer a variety of colors in each finish, they don’t always match across all finishes.)
Stance Healthcare knows that every detail of the design matters, including finishes. That’s why the company uses materials built to stand the test of time. That’s important from a budget standpoint – healthcare facilities want durable pieces that withstand wear and tear and are easy to maintain. Stance strives to strike a balance between comfort and durability with every product it manufactures, and the finishes it uses to play a significant role in how it achieves this.
Finishes and colors play a factor in our moods, and in commercial settings including healthcare, color selections must be intentional. For example, a fast-food restaurant might select colors that encourage busyness for quick eating, such as red; in a healthcare setting, we aim for the opposite: soothing tones, patterns, and hues that conjure a sense of calm and comfort in patients, care providers, and visitors. Finishes in Stance’s collection convey a neutral feel.
In addition to the wide variety of finishes it currently offers, Stance is open to quoting custom color finishes on a project-by-project basis. It’s proof of Stance’s dedication to remaining on the leading edge of hospital furniture design – and to improving lives by design. And, as a leader in the industry, Stance will continue to refresh and revamp the products it offers in order to better meet the constantly changing needs of the healthcare landscape.

The Kite Chair Offers Functional Versatility For Small Spaces.
When it comes to design, Stance Healthcare approaches every piece of furniture with purpose. Each product has unique benefits, applications and attributes that make it ideal for certain spaces. The Stance Kite Folding Chair is no different. This versatile, durable chair has a variety of functional and flexible features that make it perfect for environments where space is limited, like patient rooms and waiting rooms.
The Kite Folding Chair’s defining feature is its highly durable frame that can be folded and neatly tucked away to create more room in the space. It also comes with a wall mount for quick and easy storage. This is great for small spaces like patient rooms or multi-use areas where additional space might be needed throughout the day.
Available in both metal and wood frames, the Kite Folding Chair gives healthcare providers options to fit the look and feel of their facility. The metal frame is available in 6 different finishes with a clean, modern aesthetic. The collection of Stance metal finishes consists of Smooth Black, Textured Black, Textured Nickel, Smooth Silver, Gunmetal and Metallic Beige. The metal frame is constructed from 14 and 16 gauge material, so it can withstand heavy use and continue providing flexible functionality time after time. The stylish and durable wood frame finishes are particularly popular and help provide a classic, distinguished look. With the addition of four new colors in 2022 — Aria, White Chocolate, Dolce Vita, and Palamino — there are 12 total wood finish options to choose from. Both the metal and wooden models are intentionally designed with a contoured back and waterfall seat to provide added comfort and help patients and visitors feel more at ease in the space.
There are a number of customization options available for the Kite Folding Chair to make it even more tailored to fit the specific needs of certain spaces. Those options vary from custom frame finishes and contrasting fabrics to give the space a more distinct look, to moisture barrier and protective bumper on the chair back for added safety and protection. Plus, there are two sizes to choose from with 16” and 18” seat width options.
The Kite Folding Chair is another example of how Stance Healthcare designs products for every space, and every space’s needs. To learn more about all the finishes, features and functionality of the versatile Kite Folding Chair, visit StanceHealthCare.com

Making the Healthcare Space More Accessible by Design
Stance Healthcare’s Carson family of products offers a range of flexible, inviting seating options, like the lounge chair and sleeper sofa. And now, Stance has added even more versatility to the line with the addition of a new Carson Recliner model with Patient Transfer Arm. With each product in the line offering its own unique benefits and uses, this durable, well-designed collection of furniture works together to offer a full range of applications and bring a better overall experience to the healthcare space.
The lounge chair offers style and comfort for waiting rooms and lounge areas, while the two- and three-seat sleeper sofas provide a versatile and inviting solution for visitors when they need it most. Every product in the Carson line offers flexible style and functionality, with a variety of options to suit the needs of any space. With customizable arm caps, legs, finishes and fabrics, along with a number of other functionality options, this truly is a collection designed with everyone in mind. But what really makes it so versatile is the addition of the Recliner With Patient Transfer Arm. It’s the only recliner with a transfer arm that Stance Healthcare currently offers.
The Carson Recliner With Patient Transfer Arm offers a wide range of patient benefits that regular seating options can’t. The arm allows the user to get in and out of the chair more safely and easily, while also making it easier for the healthcare provider to help transfer patients to a bed, wheelchair or other seating option. The side-folding transfer arm is activated by a flush pull mechanism on the chair, with an audible click to alert the user that the arm is locked in position, allowing for smooth and efficient transfer every time. The dependable design features stainless steel latches and hinges for increased durability and easy cleaning, helping healthcare professionals stay on schedule and provide the care and attention that each patient deserves.
The Carson Recliner With Patient Transfer Arm fits seamlessly into the Carson collection and offers the same flexible design and customizable options as the rest of the line. With a variety of colors and fabrics to choose from, along with wood and solid surface finishes, there’s something for every aesthetic with the Carson line. The new recliner also offers a variety of options to increase functionality, like a moisture barrier, slide-out tray, IV pole and holder, trendelenburg, accessory hook and central locking system.
