less than 5% of geriatric care facilities and mental intitutions in the USA have a clean record of abuse or neglect violations by federal investigators over the past 5 years.

yes, that's right, of the over 10,000 facilities in the country, less than 500 have gone 5 years without neglecting or abusing a patient.

so you see however great the intentions of the people using these chairs, for all practical intents and purposes... it just doesn't seem to work out.

if you believe otherwise, I can only hope your destiny lands you in one of these in your future, helpless at the hands of another.
