The bathroom is a very high-risk area for home-based elderly care. The bathroom is a major location for elderly falls mainly because of the combination of slippery floors, very steamy conditions, and unpredictable variations of water temperature. As people age, their body functions such as physical coordination and leg muscle strength decline rapidly. Bathing while standing on hard floors is a challenge for seniors, as they might lose their balance, which could result in a slip-and-fall accident. Besides, if they stand too long, it leads to fatigued and numb legs. Moreover, bending for example to wash hair or to clean the body will further increase the risk of balance loss.
Careage, the leading senior care company, launched its new electric bath lift chair aiming to alleviate the problems elderly people face during a bathing session. The bathroom lift chair for elderly was specially designed keeping in mind the needs and conditions of elderly people and will not only completely prevent the risk of slips but also redefine the way elderly people have a safe bathing experience at home.
One of the main advantages of the bathroom lift chair for elderly is its great stability through use of high-quality steel to build the frame resulting in a sturdy base with proven capacity to hold weight. Wobbling and even tipping will not happen here. Besides that, the electric bath lift chair has got some silent non-slip foot pads at the bottom which allow gripping with very strong hold even on very wet bathroom tiles which is the main cause of slippage. At the same time, the bathroom lift chair for elderly has a waterproof and non-sticky seating with excellent drainage so a senior can relax without worrying about the slip risk.
The bathroom lift chair for elderly's electric lifting system, which works like a human's body, can be operated to match a range of requirements and limitations of the elderly. With a very quiet top-quality motor that allows easy and quiet height changes, it can be used by senior citizens of various heights as well as different configurations of the bathroom.
There is an option to use the electric bath lift chair while seated to bathe hair and body in comfort without the need to stand up or bend forward. Also the electric bath lift chair can be directly exposed to a shower since the whole of it is waterproof so its service life is prolonged.
Another remarkable point about the electric bath lift chair is that it combines practicality with comfort. It has a contour backrest which supports the spinal region so that a senior feels better supported and thus aches from having a bath are relieved quickly. In addition, a pair of latches on the seat provide additional safeguards. What is more, the lightweight chassis is easily maneuverable, which is helpful to reduce the burden for a family caregiver especially the ones who have to assist an elderly relative every now and again with bathing or other tasks around the house.

The new product not only ensures that through its senior care design but it also sets up a strong safeguard for the elderly persons and their families from accidents happening in the bathroom at home, a scenario very commonly reported.
