This essential assistive tool is engineered to provide stability and security, significantly reducing the risk of slips and falls during personal care. For NDIS participants with mobility challenges, fatigue, or balance concerns, this chair is a fundamental aid for maintaining independence and personal dignity in the home.

Key Benefits & Features:

• Stable & Secure Support (130 kg Capacity): The robust yet lightweight aluminium frame, complete with supportive armrests and a full backrest, provides a safe and secure seating option. It gives users added confidence when sitting down and standing up.

• Customisable Height Adjustment (42 cm - 55 cm): The legs are easily adjustable to 7 different height levels, from 42 cm to 55 cm, ensuring a safe and optimal height for transfers from a wheelchair or walker.

• Superior Fall Prevention: The chair is fitted with large, non-slip rubber feet that firmly grip wet surfaces, providing exceptional stability and preventing the chair from shifting during use.

How This Chair Supports Independence & Safety

This shower chair is a vital assistive tool that supports NDIS goals by:

• Reducing the Risk of Falls: The bathroom is a high-risk area. This chair provides a secure, seated option for showering, which is crucial for individuals with balance issues, muscle weakness, or who are recovering from injury.

• Conserving Energy: For individuals who experience fatigue, standing for the duration of a shower can be exhausting. By providing a place to sit, this chair helps to conserve energy, allowing participants to complete their personal care routine with less fatigue.

• Promoting Dignity & Independence: This aid empowers individuals to manage their own personal care routines safely and privately. The support of the chair and armrests fosters confidence and reduces the reliance on carers for physical assistance in the shower.
