If you have a medical need for this equipment, your doctor can order it, and insurance will usually cover it.

Re: Shower Chair Recommendations Please

A few years ago I had both of my knees replaced at the same time.

 

I bought a shower stool but never used it much. It still sits in the shower but I rest stuff on it.  It is perfect to sit on in the shower if you want to.  I'll try to find it.

You can buy a Drive Medical shower chair for $32 from Amazon. Medicare will pay for a basic walker. If the patient is being treated by a physical therapist, ask about the cost of a chair. You can ask your doctor.

Can't post many places on here or it will get zapped.

 

Type in shower stools and lots will pop up. Many of them are free shipping.

I use a shower bench with an arm on one side because my legs are weak and I need the arm to get up.

It's a Carex tub transfer bench. I've had it for several years and it's still in excellent condition.

I found one on Amazon.Carex Tub Transfer Bench - Shower Chair Transfer Bench with Height Adjustable Legs - Convertible to Right or Left Hand Entry

Re: Shower Chair Recommendations Please

measure the inside of your tub or shower stall

 

the legs tend to splay out for stability and I ordered a shower chair for my dad and then  realize the tub is not wide enough to accomodate the chair but can do the stool

 

good luck
