Shower Chair

Shailer Park QLD 4128

The client requires a new shower chair, as her current one is old, damaged, and no longer safe to use. She has expressed fear of using it due to the risk of falling or injuring herself, which has resulted in her being unable to have a full shower for some time and instead relying on bed baths provided by family. She is currently unable to afford a replacement. The shower chair must have a weight capacity of 140kg or more to ensure it is safe and suitable for her needs. A backrest is essential for support; however, the chair must not have armrests, as these would restrict her movement and comfort due to her body size.

Recipient story

Chronic pain limits mobility and sleep; access to essential aids will improve safety, independence, and daily living.
Other hardship(s)
Living with chronic pain and ongoing health conditions, she faces daily challenges managing basic tasks safely and independently. Reduced mobility and fatigue significantly impact her ability to move around her home, complete personal care, and maintain a healthy routine. Poor sleep further affects her physical wellbeing, pain levels, and overall quality of life.

Financial hardship further limits her ability to access the supports needed to manage her condition effectively. Without appropriate assistance, she is at increased risk of falls, injury, and further health decline.

She is motivated to remain as independent as possible and continue living safely in her home, but her current circumstances make this increasingly difficult. Access to appropriate supports would greatly improve her safety, comfort, and ability to carry out everyday activities.
