Electric Shower Bed for Patients Who Need Full Bathing Assistance

For a patient who cannot stand safely, sit independently in a shower chair or move easily between different pieces of care equipment, bathing can become a complicated part of daily care. The difficulty is often not the bathing itself, but the repeated handling required before, during and after the hygiene procedure.

This electric shower bed provides a full-length supported platform for bedridden and mobility-limited patients who require substantial caregiver assistance. Instead of relying on conventional standing or seated bathing equipment, the patient can remain supported in a lying position while caregivers perform washing, skin care, drying and other personal hygiene procedures.

The trolley combines electric height adjustment, powered tilting, a waterproof padded bathing surface, extended folding side rails and stainless steel construction in one mobile care platform.

A Full-Length Bathing Platform for Mobility-Limited Patients

Designed for Patients Who Cannot Use a Conventional Shower Chair

Shower chairs can be practical for patients who are able to maintain a stable seated position. They become less suitable when the user has severe mobility limitations, requires extensive physical assistance or cannot safely remain seated throughout the bathing procedure.

This shower bed provides an internal patient support area of approximately 1950 × 630 mm, allowing the user to remain in a supported horizontal position during assisted bathing.

Useful for Bedridden and Highly Dependent Users

The design can support care routines for bedridden patients, people undergoing rehabilitation, elderly users with significant mobility limitations and other individuals who depend on caregivers for personal hygiene.

By providing a dedicated horizontal bathing surface, the equipment allows caregivers to organize hygiene procedures around the patient's actual mobility level rather than expecting the patient to adapt to conventional bathroom equipment.

Electric Height Adjustment Improves Access around the Patient

430–660 mm Powered Height Range

The patient platform can be electrically adjusted from approximately 430 to 660 mm in height, excluding the side rails. This allows caregivers to select different working levels according to the stage of the care procedure.

The ability to raise or lower the complete patient platform is particularly useful during procedures that require repeated access to different areas of the patient's body.

One Platform for Different Stages of Hygiene Care

Bathing a highly dependent patient can involve transfer preparation, washing, skin cleaning, drying and dressing. These tasks do not necessarily require the same working position.

Electric height adjustment allows the equipment to be repositioned as the care procedure changes instead of requiring the caregiver to perform every task around a fixed-height platform.

Powered Tilting Provides Additional Positioning Flexibility

A second electric actuator controls the tilting movement of the trolley. The two powered functions therefore operate independently: one actuator controls overall height adjustment while the other controls platform tilting.

This provides additional positioning flexibility during assisted bathing and hygiene procedures without requiring caregivers to manually adjust the complete support platform.

Waterproof Padded Surface Designed for Direct Bathing

Water-Resistant Surface with High-Density EVA Padding

A conventional care mattress is not intended for direct and repeated exposure to water. This trolley therefore uses a dedicated bathing surface made from a high-toughness waterproof outer material with high-density EVA padding inside.

The waterproof outer layer is designed around wet-care use, while the internal padding provides a softer patient contact surface during bathing.

Removable for Cleaning and Disinfection

The bathing surface can be removed for cleaning and disinfection. This allows caregivers and care facilities to clean the patient-contact component separately after use as part of their routine hygiene procedures.

Folding Side Rails Provide Protection without Blocking Care

Extended Stainless Steel Side Rails

Both sides of the trolley are equipped with extended folding stainless steel side rails. When raised and locked, the rails create protective lateral boundaries around the patient support area.

This is especially relevant when caring for users who cannot reliably reposition themselves or maintain a stable body position without assistance.

Designed to Withstand Up to 100 kg Vertical Pulling or Pushing Load

The side rail structure is designed to withstand vertical pulling or pushing loads of up to 100 kg. Secure locking components maintain the rails in their working position during routine use.

180° Rotation Opens the Side for Patient Handling

During transfer and personal care, caregivers may need unobstructed lateral access to the patient. The side rails can be lowered and then rotated through up to 180 degrees, opening the side of the bathing platform more completely.

After the required care or transfer procedure has been completed, the rails can be returned to their protective position.

Stainless Steel Construction for Repeated Wet-Care Use

Robust 30 × 60 × 1.1 mm Main Frame

The main frame is manufactured from 30 × 60 × 1.1 mm stainless steel rectangular tubing. This provides a robust supporting structure while making the trolley suitable for an environment where regular exposure to water is expected.

The moving platform also incorporates 25 × 38 mm stainless steel connecting components to support the powered adjustment structure.

Double-V Support Structure

A reinforced double-V support arrangement is incorporated into the moving mechanism to distribute loads through the platform structure. This design helps avoid concentrating mechanical force at a single support point during adjustment.

For users requiring frequent assisted bathing, structural stability and reliable repeated movement are important considerations alongside the electric functions themselves.

Mobile Design Helps Organize the Bathing Workflow

Four 5-Inch Swivel Casters

The shower bed is equipped with four 5-inch swivel casters, allowing caregivers to reposition the equipment according to the available care space and bathing workflow.

The caster system incorporates wear-resistant wheel surfaces and self-lubricating bearings for smoother and quieter movement during routine operation.

Individual Brakes on All Four Casters

Each caster is equipped with an independent brake. Once the shower bed reaches the required position, the casters can be secured individually before the care procedure begins.

This model uses individual caster brakes rather than a central locking brake system.

240 kg Capacity Supports a Broader Range of Patients

The shower bed has a rated load capacity of 240 kg. Combined with the stainless steel frame and reinforced supporting mechanism, this provides a substantial structural capacity for professional assisted-care applications.

For buyers selecting bathing equipment for heavier or highly dependent patients, the load rating should be considered together with the usable platform dimensions, side rail configuration and adjustment system.

Making Assisted Bathing More Manageable

Reduce the Need to Adapt the Patient to Conventional Bathing Equipment

When a patient has significant mobility limitations, conventional bathroom equipment can require the care procedure to be organized around the equipment rather than around the patient.

A full-length electric shower bed takes a different approach. The patient remains supported horizontally, while the equipment can be raised, lowered or tilted according to different stages of hygiene care.

Better Lateral Access for Caregivers

The folding and rotating rail system allows caregivers to open one side of the trolley when closer access is required. This can be particularly useful during washing, drying, dressing and patient handling.

Designed for Repeated Assisted Hygiene Care

The combination of waterproof patient support, stainless steel construction, electric adjustment and mobile operation makes the trolley suitable for situations where assisted bathing is an ongoing part of the patient's care routine rather than an occasional procedure.

Suitable for Home Healthcare and Small Care Facilities

This electric shower bed can be considered for professional home healthcare services, rehabilitation settings, assisted living facilities, small care institutions and other environments supporting patients who cannot complete conventional bathing procedures independently.

For home-based applications, buyers should confirm that the available room dimensions, door widths, floor conditions and bathing area are suitable for professional mobile equipment of this size before ordering.

Its overall dimensions are 2150 × 870 mm, so it should be considered professional care equipment rather than a compact domestic bathroom product.
