Shower ConversionsDon't risk a dangerous fall in a bathtub.Independence, Security and Safety pack for our Senior Citizens and their families. Just Showers will replace an existing dangerous bath with a walk in/wheelchair friendly shower.
Many of the thousands of old workers cottage style homes in Brisbane only have the old shower over bath installations. Often, after people have had a major medical incident, they find they are simply unable to scramble over the edge of the bath, to stand under the shower; or find it extremely unsettling standing on the curved bottom of the bath. (Particularly the old cast iron baths that are common in these homes). Sometimes, it just simply becomes too hard, too unsettling, and too dangerous to risk a fall.
I've seen all manner of temporary setups to try and make a seat over the bath, to try and sit under the shower none of them are very satisfactory.
So, Just Showers is called in and we really love being able to remove the old bath and fit a new Hobless Shower that is a sheer delight for these cherished seniors to enjoy using again. If you've ever gone without a shower for any length of time you will just simply know how uncomfortable and distressing that can be. It really saddens me sometimes that we find clients in this situation that have simply been too scared to use the shower in many, many months.
In one case, even for many years; standing and washing with a bucket; because they were too scared that they would slip if they tried getting in and out of the bath.
I actually get very emotional when I witness the distress that this can cause. So it gives me an enormous, and immeasurable, amount of satisfaction to witness the sheer joy, and feeling of independence they get; by allowing these golden oldies to enjoy what is truly one of life's great, but most essential, simple pleasures a nice hot shower.
