Bathing stretcher

A bathing stretcher is a manually operated device designed to safely transport and support patients who cannot stand or sit while bathing. It features a platform on a frame that allows the patient to be submerged in a bath while remaining fully supported, reducing the risk of injury during transfers.

These devices are typically classified as medical devices and may require compliance with relevant safety and performance standards depending on the jurisdiction. They are commonly supplied as reusable or disposable models, with key considerations including weight capacity, ease of cleaning, and stability in wet conditions.
