B. Elevated Toilet Seat
G30270A
When bending is difficult, using the toilet can
present a potential fall risk. Using a raised
toilet seat will reduce the degree of required
bending, thereby reducing fall risk.
C. Bathroom Grab Bars
and Assist Bars
Install grab bars in your bathroom to offer
support in areas where falls are most likely
to occur. These areas include anywhere that
might have a wet surface or anywhere people
tend to bend frequently. A grab bar’s primary
use is to steady the user and may not support
the weight of a falling individual.
G98006
Bathtub Assist Bar – Clamps directly onto
the tub wall. The assist bar helps make entry
and exit safer.
Wall-Mounted Grab Bars (not shown) –
Mounts directly to your wall to provide an
extra grip when standing or sitting in the tub.
D. Transfer Bench
MDS86952
When getting in and out of the tub becomes
a difficult and potentially dangerous task,
transfer benches are a careful alternative.
The person bathing can sit down on the
outside of the bathtub, swing their legs over
the wall, and then easily slide across the
seat while holding onto a hand rail mounted
on the opposite side.
A. Handheld Shower
G98035
Hand held showers should be used for anyone
who bathes with a shower chair or transfer
bench. The 86" (218 cm) long hose allows a
person to remain seated while bathing.
