Why we know this works

We love this course because as occupational therapy practitioners (OTPs) we teach this exact transfer at real bathtubs every week, and a tub transfer bench only prevents falls when it is set up and used the right way. How do you actually use one? You sit down first and then lift your legs over the tub wall one at a time, and this 15 minute video walks you through the what, when, and how so bath day stops being the scariest task of the week. You are providing care to an important person in your life, and this course gets you confident instead of guessing.

It is especially important for family caregivers helping someone bathe after a stroke, a hip replacement, or with the balance and weakness that make stepping over a tub wall unsafe. If your loved one cannot sit upright without support or cannot bear weight through their legs, start with the Hoyer Lifts or Transferring Folks Who Can't Bear Weight trainings instead, because a standard bench will not be enough on its own.
