NRS Healthcare Adjustable Swivel Bather

Product Information

Bath seats are often used in combination with a bath board. It provides a lower sitting platform between the bath board and bottom of the bath. It positions you nearer to, or in, the water. Bathing from the seat still means you will not experience the relaxation of lying in deep water or stretching out in the bath. If you have long legs or a short bath then you may find your knees have to remain bent when seated on the board. Good upper body strength is needed to move yourself between the seat and the board. The user would sit on the seat from the outside of the bath and then rotate their body and legs over the side of the bath. If used, a slip-resistant step provides a safer surface to stand on, and a grab rail mounted on the wall may provide a secure handhold to grip whilst using the step.

Manual bath lifts are operated hydraulically, using the weight of the person to lower the lift and the buoyancy of the water to help to raise the lift. When you are ready to get out of the bath, you sit upright and push down on the bath rims. This releases the hydraulic piston, which is pre-set for your weight. We do NOT decide if an item is or isn’t exempt & we don’t make any more or less money if we charge you VAT or we don’t charge you VAT. If you experience difficulty lifting your legs over the bath rim when in a seated position, some bath lifts can be raised higher than the top of the bath rims, which reduces how far you need to raise your legs to clear the bath rim. The height of these baths can be adjusted, either mechanically or electrically. This is designed to reduce the need for a carer to bend over the bath if you require assistance. The comfort swivel bath seat with adjustable width can adjust between 26" and 28" (66cm - 71cm) and has armrests to offer additional support. The arms are detachable if required.If these options are not possible, a bath lift is often trialled. This raises to the top of the bath where your sit on it and swing your legs over. You then press a button on the hand set and it lowers you down. When finished, you press the button to raise it up, swing your legs over the edge of the bath and stand up. The battery is completely safe in the water and is charged off the mains in another room with a charger that plugs into the wall much like a mobile phone charger. You don't have to physically buy the goods in person. If your parent, guardian or wife or husband buys the goods and services for you, then you won't be charged VAT.

You will need to ensure that your bath is strong enough, of the right dimensions, and safe for the installation of bathing equipment.These consist of a bath board attached to a bath seat and have the advantage of being more stable than two separate units. However, they can be rather bulky and heavy to remove from the bath.
