Surefoot Bath and Shower Board

Getting in and out of the bath can be quite a balancing act for any of us. However, by choosing a bath/shower board, you will gain the confidence to sit over your bath to wash, or get down into the bath to stretch out and soak. Being able to sit can greatly reduce your chance of slipping over; as a result, you will be able to enjoy bathing safely and easily again with our Surefoot® bath shower board.

This hygienic bath board is easily adjusted to fit the majority of baths safely. The bath aid is for use on top of the bath for bathing in comfort. If you have an over bath shower, you can simply sit on it to take a shower, avoiding having to stand up for a long period.

Width adjustable like the Kingfisher®, the extra wide Surefoot® gives you more space when having a relaxing wash.

Key Safety Points:

This bath board is not suitable for a corner bath.
It is not recommended that it be fitted where there is an overlap or under hang of more than 25mm.
Ensure you do a visual check that the internal bath width does not exceed the safety guide mark on both ends of the board before continuing with use.

Easy to install and maintain. Our Surefoot® bath shower board is simple to assemble and fix in 4 steps – no tools required. The optional safety handle gives extra stability when changing position. Reassuringly by your side every time you wash. The bath board seat is for use by the elderly or less mobile. If you are no longer able to safely climb in/out of the bath, you have reduced mobility or reduced strength to safely transfer, and you have the ability to sit unsupported/unaided. Because of this the bath board is not suitable for users who are unable to sit without support.

You can use the bath board it to transfer safely down into the bath, or in conjunction with a bath seat. You might find our leg lifter useful if you need additional help lifting your legs into the bath. Used together with our bathing accessories, you will be able to enjoy independent bathing again.
