Transfer Benches

Getting in and out of a bathtub can be one of the trickiest day-to-day routines one must face when dealing with limited mobility. Hard and wet bath surfaces are simply a dangerous combination. Transfer benches are available for safe maneuvering in the bathroom. These benches are often lightweight and collapsible for easy out-of-the way storage when not in use. Some transfer benches feature sliding mechanisms that allow for a smooth transition into the shower area. Separate shower chairs are also offered for safety and comfort while bathing, and grab bars are sensible bathroom addition.
