FAQS on specialist care baths
What if I need extra care?
We have manufactured specialist care baths for over 35 years. These high quality baths for care homes, hospitals and rehabilitation facilities are now available for your home. Despite their high specification, they are stylish baths that will blend into your bathroom without looking ‘medical’.
Baths such as the Alera and Talano offer many extra care features including a powered bather transfer seat. For bathers who struggle to use any bath, these models will lift, rotate and lower you into and out of the bath – total powered support for safety with peace of mind. Other safety aspects include temperature controlled water and BioCote antimicrobial protection, plus with the Alera you have a powered leg lift.
What is a bather transfer seat?
This comfortable seat will move you into and out of the bath. It is fitted with swing-up armrests and a safety belt for added reassurance. If you choose either the Alera or Talano bath, you can position your transfer seat at just the right height to move across from a wheelchair or to sit down with control.
Once in position, a carer or yourself can operate the easy-to-use controller to lift, rotate and lower the seat – this is smooth and can be stopped at any point. If you find lifting your legs up and over the bath side, the Alera powered leg lift will help.
It makes sense to fill the bath first so you are gently lowered into temperature controlled water. This way you stay warm and can enjoy a soak without delay.
Are there any therapeutic options?
Being able to bathe is a fantastic feeling which can be so beneficial for health and wellbeing. This therapy can be enhanced by the addition of special features on your care bath which can include AirSpa, coloured lighting and sound.
The jets and bubbles from the AirSpa can provide a soothing massage for aches and pains whilst the addition of chromotherapy helps mood and positivity. If you like to listen to music or an audio book in the bath, our Alera and Talano can be fitted with wireless Bluetooth technology so you can connect devices such as laptops and smart phones.
What specialist safety features will give me peace of mind?
If you need extra support to bathe, we understand feeling safety is your top priority. This is why our specialist care baths are designed with ‘hospital grade’ features but still resemble a domestic product. This means your self-esteem is not compromised whilst benefiting from:
- Powered bather transfer seats
- Temperature controlled water so no risk of scalding
- Optional auto fill for controlled water depth
- Ergonomic design for greater postural support
- Built-in BioCote antimicrobial protection – invisible and integrated into every surface to stop 99.99% of microbes, mould, bacteria and some viruses.
