Some people with physical limitations may benefit from using a bath lift. A bath lift is a piece of assistive technology that makes it easier for people to enter and exit a bath tub. It’s basically a seat that moves to make it easier to get over the bath tub “wall.” The bath lift highlighted in this post is the Portable Bath Life, model 7189 by Patterson Medical.
Portable Bath Lift, model 7189, is a hydraulic bath lift designed for use by individuals with balance, mobility, or lower extremity disabilities.

The lift is latex free. The seat is 2 to 21 x 15 x 15 inches. The base is 20 x 26 inches. The maximum weight capacity is 200 pounds. This product is manufactured by Patterson Medical Holdings, LLC.
