For someone who can still manage a bath but can no longer get down into it and back up, the Mangar Bathing Cushion is one of the simplest answers. It sits in the bath, inflates and deflates on air from the Airflo 12 power source, and lowers the person to the bottom of the bath and raises them out again at the press of a handset button.
Because the cushion deflates fully, your client can lie right back and have a proper bath. Leaving some air in gives a supportive backrest instead, so the same product covers two quite different bathing positions.
It suits a person with reasonable upper body stability and it supports single handed care, which matters for a spouse or a solo support worker. The control is fully waterproof, and the unit will not lower someone into the bath unless there is enough battery left to raise them back out.
