Bath Transfer Bench

Enable you to keep your hips in line with the length of the bath.  You need to be able to lift your legs over the bath rim and slide your bottom over the middle of the bath independently or with the assistance of a carer. Some models have a sliding seat which can make it easier to slide along the bench.

Bath Lift

Can be operated either by the user for independent bathing, or by a carer to make the task of assisting someone easier and safer, thus reducing the risk of back injury. However users must be able to lift their legs over the bath rim if they wish to bathe independently.
