The bath seats and bath boards in this section can aid transfers in and out of the bath. For example, when an individual experiences difficulty stepping into the bath or when lowering themselves to the bottom of the bath. However, the user still needs to be able to lift their legs over the rim of the bath.
Bath seats are often used together with bath boards, combination bath boards and seats are available.
When considering bathing equipment an individual assessment with an occupational therapist may be appropriate as your safety in your bathroom is very important. There may also be individual factors which determine which bathing equipment best suits your needs. The information on this site is not a substitute for individual assessment.
Please read our advice on the compatibility of baths with bathing equipment and our fact sheet 'choosing a bath and bath accessories'.
