The Best Bath Chair

The Best Bath Chair

A bath chair is one of the most basic necessities for children and adults with special needs. Bath chairs are designed to sit in bathtubs and support people who may fatigue easily during bathing or who cannot support themselves while bathing. They can also help caretakers transfer special needs children or adults into the bathtub. Articulating bath chairs are adjustable to angle the child or adult at different angles for optimum bathing assistance.

 

One of the most important elements of a bath chair is that it should have slip-resistant feet. Ideally the feet of a bath chair will come with rubberized grips that will resist skidding on the tub floor. Nothing would be worse than being injured during a nice, relaxing bath! Also, bath chairs should be mold and mildew resistant and easy-to-clean.

The Friendly Wheelchair

If you’re looking for the ultimate in mobility, you’re looking for an Amigo scooter. Amigo Mobility International, Inc. has been making “friendly wheelchairs” since 1968, when founder Al Thieme was personally motivated to create a power scooter to accommodate a family member who was diagnosed with multiple sclerosis. According to the company’s website, the Amigo initiated the entire power scooter industry. Today, Amigo power operated vehicles are known for their compact durability, unique customization options, user-friendly features, simple maintenance, and dependable operation.

 

Nearly anyone can find an Amigo scooter to fit his or her mobility needs. Amigo offers a compact TravelMate scooter that is optimal for hassle-free storage in cabs, cars, RVs, boat, and planes. Even though it’s compact and great for travel, it sill has a robust 250-pound weight capacity. For people of smaller stature who want to maneuver around tighter areas at home or in stores, the Amigo Express Junior is perfect to accommodate small frames. Amigo also offers convenient, reasonably priced replacement parts and accessories, like baskets and touch controllers, to make the Amigo experience seamless.
