How do bathlifts work?
Most of our bathlifts function in the same way, albeit with a few different features on each model. They are chairs which allow you to easily descend into and ascend from the bath tub taking away the need to climb over the side, settle yourself down or pull yourself up - all of which are the most common times that people have been known to slip or fall.
The sides of the bathlifts are fixed on the outer-rims of a bathtub. When you wish to use the bath, you simply sit on the chair and swing your legs into the bath. Your feet will be in the water while the rest of your body sits on the chair slightly above. By pressing a button - which is usually done with a remote control you will receive with the bathlift - you will allow the chair to descend into the water. You should then be able to recline the chair at whatever angle you desire so you are immersed in the water.
A similar process is used when you are ready to exit the bath. You should be able to recline the chair back to its original upright position and press a button to ascend from the water. Once it has reached an ample height, you need only move your legs to the side and step off the chair.
This process is designed to assist anyone who may lack the upper or lower body strength to climb in or out of a bath. They fit most sizes of baths, they are comfortable to use and they are quite simply the perfect solution for anyone who may be concerned for their safety, or the safety of someone they love, whose mobility could cause problems when using the bath.
