by Shane Henson — December 5, 2012—Healthcare furniture manufacturers Nemschoff and Herman Miller Healthcare have introduced a new sleepover sofa designed to help guests of hospital/healthcare patients have a much more comfortable stay.
The companies’ Merge Sleepover Flop helps create a sense of well-being for patients by comfortably supporting family and visitors, says Nemschoff. Both modern-looking and versatile, Merge includes an integrated table, recliner and storage options, which support a variety of activities, including sleeping, working, dining and socializing, explains Nemschoff.
According to Nemschoff, Merge also delivers:
- Safety features, including a front-accessible rear-locking caster system, clean-out design, anti-microbial sleep surface and removable covers, to mitigate risk for patients and their guests.
- Comfortable yet strong spring-seat construction, an external laminate back panel, a stable plinth base, and a fully upholstered arm to withstand high-use environments yet maintain its sleek aesthetic appeal.
- Numerous customization options, from dovetail storage drawers to footrests to a stationary or adjustable height center table, to seamlessly blend with the style of the surrounding healthcare space.
Enhancing design flexibility, Merge is available in a range of fabric styles found within the Nemschoff Performance Fabric Collection, which embodies the convergence of residential, hospitality, and spa aesthetics with the strict requirements of healthcare, says Nemschoff.
