Medline Padded Transfer Bench for Bathtub and Shower - Height Adjustable with Back and Arm Rests - 400 lb. Weight Capacity

Getting in and out of a bathtub places the elderly and those recovering or rehabbing after an injury at a high risk of falling. The Padded Tub and Shower Transfer Bench by Medline is ideal for people with significant balance, endurance, and strength deficits who tire easily. Using this device helps maintain some independence from caregivers, and for older adults and people with mobility issues, attending to personal care needs without assistance is a big consideration.

This tub transfer bench from Medline eliminates the need for assistance to climb over the edge of a bathtub, since users have an easy time sliding across the bench, and they retain some independence while taking care of their own bathing needs. A user can sit down outside the tub area, slide over on the bench, which straddles the tub wall, and enjoy a shower in a much safer environment. This blow-molded bench has two rubber-tipped feet that will not slide on the bathroom floor outside the tub. The other two feet of this bench are suction cups, which are used to keep it firmly adhered to the bottom of the tub. For extra support, stability, and leverage Medline has included a side arm in its design. To fit with any bathroom configuration, the chair can be reversed by changing the direction of the backrest. This modification requires no extra tools on the part of the user.
