I'd say a rough estimate of 66-75% of visitors are obese. We don't have special chairs, but all of our rooms have recliners in them that support larger people with no problems.
We actually have rooms on our floor specifically for bariatric patients that are significantly larger than our regular rooms so that all the equipment will fit in.

Hi,
What percentage of your VISITORS to the patient room are obese? Is this getting worse? Do you end up supplying them with a bariatric chair?
I need help with these questions for a paper I am writing! Any help would be greatly appreciated!!:wink2:
Thanks,
C
