Everyone needs a good shower or bath on a regular basis. But for seniors, disabled persons and others with limited mobility, getting in or out of a bathtub can be a challenging and potentially dangerous experience. Stepping over a tub wall simply isn't an option for some, and many caregivers aren't strong enough to lift someone up and over. A tub transfer bench is a safe and effective way to get in the shower without unnecessary risk or strain. Parentgiving has bath benches for elderly and injured individuals from top brands that will provide bathroom mobility for those who need assistance.
We have a wide assortment of transfer benches and chairs in all sizes and styles. Universal bathroom benches straddle the bathtub wall, allowing users to sit on the portion outside of the tub, easily slide inside and remain seated for a bath or shower. A backrest on the in-tub portion provides additional support. From there, you can select a number of options for fit and function. Select an adjustable shower bench for added customization, padded transfer benches that are extra-comfortable, reversible bath benches that can be used in any tub or a bariatric transfer bench for heavier patients. Molded shower benches fit the body more exactly for added comfort.
All of our transfer tub seats for elderly people are made to be secure and easy to use. Steel or aluminum frames offer lightweight strength while the textured plastic seats have drain holes to prevent water puddling.

You may need assistance getting over the side of the tub whether you plan on using a handheld shower or sitting under your shower&rsquos jets once inside. Bathtub transfer benches make &ldquotransferring&rdquo in and out of the bathtub safe simple and comfortable. With a transfer bench you sit down at the end that is positioned outside of the tub then swing your legs over the side of the tub and center yourself on the bench eliminating the need to actually climb over to get in. Think of it as an extension of the typical shower chair.
