Hygiene and health go together.

When we make bathing easier, our clients are healthier. The Wave system has been designed to improve bathing and showering – for the client and for the caregiver.

Responding to requests from therapists and caregivers, we widened these bath chairs to accommodate larger clients. And to protect skin integrity we added generous padding under soft knit fabric.

As well as mounting the bath chair on a tub stand or rolling shower stand we’ve added an ingenious tub transfer base to completely change the way you transfer and bathe large clients. There’s nothing like it.

The Wave bath chair is terrific! In the past, lifting a child into a tub has been a back killer, but the new transfer base eliminates this hazard entirely. The casters allowing lateral movement in the tub are a welcome addition, and the fact that I can easily collapse the base and hang it on the wall is a fabulous space saver."
