Taking Accessibility for Tetraplegia Mainstream in Hotels (Norwegian)

By Scott Rains on March 10, 2010 11:45 AM | 1 Comment

Design makes all the difference! For those who don't understand the Norwegian just watch the images of the Integra lifter. It looks just like a furniture removing the stigma of "hospital appliance" from a necessary assistive device. 


When will we see this in hotels? Let me venture some guesses.

 
  • Is Magnus already looking at the Integra lister for Scandica?
  • Roy for Microtel?
  • Niranjan for Welcome/ITC?

This is a very good product with Style. It will be a great success. I like to see it in many hotels, nursing homes and cruiseships.
