Shower Chair w/ Back
Shower Chair with Back provides a full backrest for patients who require postural support during showering, offering greater seating security than a backless model. It is appropriate for patients with balance impairment, trunk weakness, or general deconditioning who need support through the entire bathing routine.
OxyCare supplies shower chairs with and without backs and can advise on the appropriate configuration based on the patient's balance and support needs. Rental is available.
