ABSTRACT:
A safety support for supporting a body in an upright position while seated in a bathtub comprising a support bar having a curved central portion and secured transversely between the sides of the tub. The bar is supported by a pair of brackets secured to the side walls of the tub. The brackets include a plurality of registering apertures into which the ends of the bar can be inserted and permit the bar to be supported at different levels with respect to the floor of the tub. A retaining member confines the bather's body between itself and the support bar so that the body is retained in a substantially upright sitting position.
