The safest and most thorough way to cleanse an individual in a wheelchair is to have a chair specifically designed for that purpose. The Travel shower chair offers full care giver cleansing access while providing secure bather safety with materials designed for the bathing environment. It is intended for long term repeated use. Additionally, the commode style seat enables the best perennial access for full hygiene. The travel feature, click together/ click apart, allows the chair to travel with you in or out of its travel bag or quickly stored when not needed.
Features
• Adjustable waterproof nylon cloth back with swing-away/removable push handles
• Cantilever fold-back/locking padded arms
• Self-skinning urethane padded seat cushion which also has a 1/2” foam waterfall style around the inner ring and slot to protect the ischial and coccyx areas to reduce the risk of pressure sores.
• Seat height adjusts from 20-1/2” to 24-1/2” to provide access over even the highest toilets required by the ADA.
• Adjustable swing-away footrests
• Four 4” diameter casters with total-lock brakes
• Constructed of materials that won't rust or corrode: aircraft grade aluminum, brass, stainless steel and plastic.
Benefits

• Lightweight and portable enough to be towed behind most standard wheel chairs
