Handicap Tubs: The Benefits of Walk-In Tubs for Handicapped Individuals

Any handicapped individual is likely to notice that the limitations of daily life can become very frustrating. Handicap walk-in tubs can turn the difficulty of bathing into a part of the day to look forward to. When a handicapped individual can’t move their legs and is confined to a wheelchair, it takes away the ability to step over the wall of a tub and get in on their own. This is not only be frustrating, but humiliating. A handicap tub can give these individuals back their independence.

The Comforts of Home

Many people like to come home to a hot and relaxing bath. The stresses of the day just melt into the water and go down the drain. A handicapped individual often does not have that luxury. They have to worry about slipping when they try to get in or out of the tub and about getting help to do so in the first place. Handicap walk-in tubs change all of that.

  • A walk in tub has a door on the side of it so that handicapped individuals do not have to step over the wall to get into the tub. Several models employ tools like slide-in seats for those bound to wheelchairs or lifts for others who have trouble sitting up in the tub. Getting in or out is safer with this feature.
  • A door may not be enough to get into the tub safely, and handicap tub manufacturers have thought of this as well. The individual can have safety bars and grips installed in places that make maneuvering easier.
  • Some models come with a quick-drain feature that makes the water leave the tub fast enough for the individual using it to get out and wrapped in a warm towel before they start to shiver.
