Slippery surfaces, diminished mobility and wet conditions all conspire to form the ideal scenario where accidents happen. In fact, the very nature of shower chair actually negates these hazards with its solid and stable base of support, which helps to support and stabilize the occupant on comfortable perch well above soggy floor. Whether in private home or facility like assisted living or hospital settings, shower chairs and other assistive devices become vital barriers to protect those who would otherwise fall.

Core Features That Define Quality Shower Chairs

Stability and non-slip design are key to good shower chair. Leading brands construct their units with durable aluminum or stainless steel frames which are equipped with rubber feet that can maintain firm grip on any wet shower or bath surface. These units often come equipped with heavy duty caster wheels (with locks if mobility is needed for institutional use), as opposed to stationary options, but in most cases, latter is ideal.
