Heavy-Duty Shower Chair | NDIS Bathroom Safety Aid

Restore total confidence, safety, and dignity to your daily hygiene routine with the Stabase Heavy-Duty Shower Chair. Classified as low cost assistive technology, this robust bathroom mobility aid is engineered to support NDIS participants living with physical disabilities, vestibular imbalance, low muscle tone, or those recovering from major orthopaedic surgeries.

Navigating wet, slippery bathroom tiles is one of the most high-risk activities in the home for slips and transfers. This bariatric-grade chair completely mitigates those risks by offering a stable, slip-resistant seated platform. Crafted from rust-resistant, reinforced aluminium, it accommodates up to 180kg in static weight while remaining incredibly lightweight . The extra-wide seat, combined with soft padded armrests and a comfortable backrest, provides essential postural stability. Carers can easily reposition the unit to customise the space, making daily bathing routines stress-free, physically secure, and self-managed.

How This Device Supports NDIS Participants

• Fall Prevention & Core Stability: Sitting during bathing removes the physical load of maintaining balance on slippery surfaces, drastically reducing the risk of slips for participants with ataxia or vertigo.

• Postural & Transfer Support: The detachable, padded armrests provide solid physical leverage to assist participants during difficult sit-to-stand transfers, reducing the physical strain on both the user and their carer .

• Bariatric-Grade Weight Accommodation: With an outstanding static load capacity of 180kg and a wide seat pan, it offers reliable, heavy-duty support that reduces transfer anxiety and boosts psychological safety .

• Energy Conservation: For participants managing chronic fatigue, cardiopulmonary conditions, or fibromyalgia, sitting down during personal care preserves physical energy for other essential daily living tasks.
