ABSTRACT:
A shower-bed device that provides a high degree of self-mobility to a handicapped individual during showering. The device includes a platform with a water-resistant, non-slip padded surface with through-holes to allow water to flow therethrough. Large wheels with hand-rims provide the handicapped individual with a way to move the shower-bed. Small wheels that may pivot as well as rotate provide increased maneuverability. Adjustable-railings that prevent the handicapped individual from falling from the platform are also provided.
