Bench – Bath Handle Adjust

Height-Adjustable Bath Bench with Handle for Safe Seated Bathing

The FS7931 is a height-adjustable bath bench with integrated handle, designed to span across a standard bath and provide a stable seated bathing surface for users who cannot safely stand in the bath or step over the bath edge. The bench allows the user to sit on the rim of the bath at the side, slide across the bench surface into position over the bath, and bathe in a seated position with back support and a secure handle grip ? a configuration that significantly reduces the risk of bath-related falls, which are one of the most common causes of serious injury in older adults and people with mobility impairments. The adjustable legs allow the bench height to be matched to the user’s specific bath rim and body height, ensuring a stable, level seating position during bathing.

Safe Bath Transfer for Older Adults and Mobility-Impaired Users

The FS7931 bath bench is particularly suited to older adults, post-surgical patients, and users with lower limb weakness, balance impairments or arthritis who retain some upper body strength and are able to perform a seated lateral transfer. The integrated handle provides a secure grip point for steadying the transfer and maintaining seated balance during bathing, reducing the reliance on a carer for physical support during the bathing process. The bench surface is designed to be non-slip and comfortable for seated use over the period of a bath.
