Rifton Wave Bathing System
The Rifton Wave has been re-imagined to improve bathing and showering for the client and caregiver. Exceptional new features have been incorporated to help make bathing a more relaxed and pleasant experience, in or out of baths and showers. The Wave chair provides infinite adjustability with an easy range of angle adjustments to the seat, back and calf rest.
The seat has been widened to accommodate larger clients and generous padding under the soft knit fabric has been added to protect skin integrity. The Wave chair is completely configurable and all sizes can fit on any of the three base options. It is the least costly alternative to remodeling a bathroom or assisted living, without resorting to bed baths.
