Bathing is often the first area of your physical life to become challenging when you get older or less mobile. The good news is that there are lots of different options to consider.
Bath boards fit on the bath across its width, helping you to get into and out of the bath, and provide a straight, solid seat for you to sit on once you’re in the bath. They are usually slatted or perforated to allow for good drainage.
Bath seats are a good choice for people who have limited mobility around the knee joints and limited arm strength. As the name suggests, a bath seat is a seat that goes in the bath. They are often used together with a bath board, and although raised above the bottom of the tub, they allow you to sit more fully immersed.
