Wave (Bathing and Transfer)

Contact Us

Description

Hygiene and health go together.

When we make bathing easier, our clients are healthier. The all new Wave system has been thoroughly reimagined to improve bathing and showering – for the client and for the caregiver.

Responding to requests from therapists and caregivers, we widened these new bath chairs to accommodate larger clients. And to protect skin integrity we added generous padding under soft knit fabric.

As well as mounting the bath chair on a tub stand or rolling shower stand we’ve added an ingenious new tub transfer base to completely change the way you transfer and bathe large clients. There’s nothing like it.

Accessories

Chest Straps
The simple chest strap safely positions the user in the Wave bath chair. It attaches with hook and loop where needed along the full height of the back, and buckles securely behind.
Chest Straps
The simple chest strap provides minimal lateral positioning and is best used with clients who are able to maintain their own trunk alignment.
Chest Straps
The chest strap with adjustable lateral straps gives additional lateral support helping users maintain better trunk alignment in the bath chair. The soft fabric laterals will not get in the way during transfers.
Chest Straps
Unlike the laterals on most bath chairs, The Wave's soft fabric laterals will not get in the way during transfers.
Head blocks
Optional head blocks provide lateral support and positioning for the user's head.
Head blocks
The soft plastic head blocks are on a strap that can be positioned at any height on the back rest. Aside from providing positioning support for clients with poor head control, head blocks can also give the client a feeling of security.
Leg Straps
Use the fully adjustable leg straps to position your client's hips in abduction (or just to provide additional security).

Calf rest
The calf rest option provides more support for the lower legs and is especially needed when the bath chair is used on one of the stands.
Calf rest
The calf rest must be chosen at the time of the original purchase. It cannot be added later.
Tub Stand
The optional tub stand raises the bath chair either 5 ½” or 11 ½” higher in the tub depending on the position of the tub stand legs.
Tub Stand
The Wave on the tub stand. Both stand and chair have slip-resistant feet for stability in the tub. The tub stand legs also fold flat for storage. Quick-release locks allow bath chair to be attached or removed from the tub stand without using tools.
Shower Stand
The shower stand lets you roll your client into the shower stall at a height that allows for better cleaning – and saves your back. Locking casters (4") provide smooth, easy maneuverability.

Tub transfer base
The ingenious tub transfer base is ideal for the large or heavy user who needs an over-the-tub shower. It's much more gentle on your back, too.
Tub transfer base
With the tub transfer base you start in the position farthest out of the tub and lower the client into the chair. Then you roll back over the tub and set the brakes.
Tub transfer base
As the upper portion with the bath chair is rotated 90° it moves approximately one foot back over the tub in one smooth motion.
Note: Take care to select the direction of the pivot, clockwise or counterclockwise, at the time of purchase. (The tub transfer base pictured pivots clockwise into the tub.)
Tub transfer base
The tub transfer base fits bath tubs up to 24" high by adjusting the leg length to clear the edge of the tub. (Use long legs if the edge of your bathtub is more than 20” above the floor.)
Tub transfer base
The tub transfer base you can perform healthy transfers – either manually or with a mechanical lift – without crowding your bathroom with permanently mounted equipment.
Tub transfer base
The folding, storable tub transfer base makes it possible for everyone in the family to still use the tub.
When you are finished just remove the base from the tub, fold the legs…
