The backrest on a shower commode is a firm surface, and a client who leans back into it for the length of a shower will feel it, particularly if they are thin or have limited ability to shift their own position.
This soft back pad sits inside the arm supports and gives the back warmth and a bit of give, which makes the chair much easier to tolerate for someone who needs a long, unhurried routine. Because it is fitted inside the arms, the arm supports still fold up, so a side transfer from a bed or a wheelchair is not obstructed.
It attaches without tools and wipes down, so it can be taken off for cleaning and returned by a carer. It suits Etac Clean, Swift Mobil-2, Swift Mobil Tilt-2, Swift Mobil 24 inch-2 and Alto.
