Features
ShowerBuddy SB1 Shower Transfer System
ShowerBuddy standard shower transfer system alleviates heavy lifting and multiple transfers for toileting and showering. This chair is separated into three sections; rolling base (shower chair), bridge and shower base. The rolling base rolls around the house like a wheelchair allows patient to easily transfer and then roll right over a toilet (certain toilets). Once completed with toileting the rolling base can connect to the bridge and then onto the shower base allows the chair to slide into the shower. Once inside the shower, the bridge disconnects and the shower base turns allows the user to face the shower controls.
ShowerBuddy SB1 shower transfer system will turn your existing bathroom into an accessible bathroom that allows you to enjoy showering again without the excessive cost, delay and stress of a full bathroom remodel.
- Showerbuddy SB1 system is made of aluminum which will not rust when in contact with water.
- Height adjustability on rolling base and shower base - allows for use in a variety of shower stall sizes.
- Rolls over some toilets- allows for “no mess” alternative to commode usage.
