A bathtub transfer bench bath chair is a tool designed to help individuals safely enter and exit a bathtub. The bench spans the width of the bathtub, with one end resting outside and the other end inside. The user sits on the bench, then rotates their legs over the side of the tub while holding onto the arms for support. They can then slide across the bench into the tub while remaining seated. To exit, the process is reversed. It also can offer a safe transfer from wheelchair to bed.
 

This tool is particularly useful for individuals who have limited mobility or balance impairments. There are many kinds of transfer benches available with various weight capacities and features, such as bathtub transfer bench bath chair with back. Proper installation and use of this tool can help prevent falls and provide independence for those who may not have been able to bathe unassisted before.
