What is a transfer chair and what does it do?
1.What is a Tub Transfer Chair?
Bathing is essential for skin care and comfort, but it is also one of the most dangerous activities in daily life. Tub transfer stools are ideal for people who are at risk of falling due to weakness, fatigue, or poor balance.
Tub transfer stools allow users to remain in a seated position while entering and exiting the shower or bathtub. Two of the legs are placed in the bathtub, and the other two are placed on the bathroom floor. The stool straddles the wall of the bathtub, eliminating the need to climb in and out. Once in the bathtub, the transfer chair provides a secure position to sit while you shower.
2. Bath Benches vs. Shower Chairs
Bath benches are wider than shower chairs, so they straddle the wall of the bathtub. Your body is fully supported while entering and exiting the bathtub. Shower chairs allow you to remain in a seated position while bathing, but they do not help you in and out of the bathtub. Bath benches are larger than shower chairs and are not as portable.
Like shower chairs, bath benches are made of corrosion-resistant materials that are easy to clean. Aluminum frames provide better support than plastic frames and are less prone to rusting. Solid plastic seats have drainage holes to prevent water accumulation that can cause mold.
3. What should I look for when choosing a bathtub bench?
It is important to have height-adjustable legs so that all four legs can rest flat and steady on the floor. The height of the two legs in the bathtub is lower than the two legs on the bathroom floor. Adjust the bathtub bench so that the seat height is appropriate for the user. You should be able to sit down without straining joints or falling on the seat.
The bathtub bench must stay in place when sitting down and standing up to prevent serious injuries. The backrest provides comfort and support for the upper body while bathing. It eliminates the risk of falling backwards while bathing and saves physical energy to prevent a fall after bathing.
