ShowerBuddy

ShowerBuddy

The ShowerBuddy is a shower transfer system that reduces the need for heavy lifting and multiple transfers for toileting and showering. The chair can be separated into three sections: the shower chair (rolling base), bridge and shower base. The height adjustable shower chair allows the person to easily transfer and can then roll right over a toilet (certain toilets). Once completed with toileting the rolling base can be connected to the bridge and then onto the shower base allowing the chair to slide into the shower. The shower base turns allowing the user to face the shower controls.
