Bath Access

Getting in and out of a bath is one of the riskiest movements in the home. Bath access equipment, including bath boards, transfer benches, bath steps and bath lifts, lets a person sit before crossing the bath edge rather than stepping over it.

For clinicians assessing bath access in Tasmania, measure the internal and external bath width, rim height and any taps or screens that get in the way. Consider sitting balance, the ability to lift the legs over the side, and whether a carer needs room to assist. Check the safe working load and whether the product suits a fixed or freestanding bath.

Thrive Lifecare can trial options with the person before you commit, quote under NDIS, Home Care Packages and Support at Home, DVA or private funding, and deliver and set up Tasmania-wide. Book a trial and keep bathing a private, confident routine.
