A swivel shower stool is for the client who can sit safely but is unsteady on their feet on wet tiles. The seat turns on the frame, so the user sits down first and then rotates into the shower, bringing one leg over at a time while they are already supported.
That turning action takes standing balance out of getting in and out, which is where most bathroom falls happen. For a carer, it means steadying someone who is seated, not someone who is mid step.
It suits older clients living at home, people recovering from a hip or knee, and anyone who finds a long shower tiring and would rather sit through it.
