Plastic Bariatric Bath Board with Grab Rail and Soap Dish

Supportive, Adjustable and Contoured Bariatric Bath Board for safer bathing and transfers

Feeling unsteady when getting into the bath can make what should be a relaxing experience feel stressful. For those with limited mobility or bariatric users, the fear of slipping while stepping over the high edge of a tub is a common and valid concern. It can lead to avoiding proper bathing, which impacts personal hygiene and confidence.

The Plastic Bariatric Bath Board with Grab Rail offers a simple and effective solution. It creates a stable, secure platform across the top of your bath, allowing you to sit down and swing your legs over without the risky step down. With a generous 150kg weight capacity, it provides reliable support. The wider, contoured end is specifically designed to make transfers smoother, while the removable grab handle gives you a firm point of contact to hold for extra stability. With adjustable feet to ensure a snug fit and drainage slots to keep the seat dry, this bath board helps restore safety and independence in the bathroom.

Why choose this bath board?

• Safer Transfers: A wider, contoured end provides more space to comfortably and securely slide onto and off the board.
• Added Stability: The removable grab rail offers a firm, reliable handle to hold during transfers and while seated.
• Bariatric Support: Built to last with a Safe Working Load (SWL) of 150kg, providing confidence and peace of mind for bariatric users.
• Adjustable and Secure Fit: Features adjustable feet that grip the inside of the tub, ensuring the board remains stable and doesn't shift during use.
• Practical Design: Integrated slots drain water away from the seating area to prevent slipping, and a handy soap dish keeps your soap within easy reach.

How the bath board is used day to day

• Sitting safely at a comfortable height while using a handheld shower.
• Easily washing your feet and lower legs without bending down or losing balance.
• Transferring into the bath with the help of a carer, using the grab rail for stability.
• Gaining the confidence to bathe independently, knowing you have a stable seat.
• Resting a sponge or shampoo on the board beside you for convenience.

Fit, setup and suitability

Before ordering, please measure the internal width of your bathtub. The adjustable feet on this board need to rest securely on both inner edges to ensure stability. The board has an overall width of 680mm. It is best suited for individuals who can sit upright without back support but require a raised, stable surface to avoid stepping down into a slippery tub.
