I heard warnings that you shouldn't use slippery fabric: the person can slip from the lift chair.

Mom “wants an upholstered fair on it”. But if you are looking to buy an”invalid chair”, it’s unlikely that you’ll find one with upholstery, and there’s a good reason for that, which you already know.

There ARE very good quality protective covers sold as “puppy guards” or under other names, on Amazon, but at least at present, I think you will need to be responsible for them yourself.

As much as you want to make Mom as happy as possible, she may have to accept the fact that what she wants and what she needs are not doable.

I'm happy to be responsible for the protective covers- to buy them and clean them. I was thinking of buying 2 or 3 and keeping them in her room. What I wonder is if it's too much to ask the staff to change them out when needed. Our durable medical supply company sells upholstered lift chairs. The chair she had in rehab at the same facility was upholstered. So, I'm not sure what you mean about it's unlikely I'd find one with upholstery and that what I'm looking to buy is an invalid chair- am I looking for the wrong type of chair? Appreciate any input about that. Thanks!
