Description
Redefining the Shower Commode Chair
The ActiveAid SC is a self-propelled shower commode chair that redefines the look and performance of traditional rehab hygiene equipment. Its frame design is more than aesthetics—it creates one of the market’s most narrow, compact, and modular shower/commode systems, designed to improve access in tight bathrooms and through narrow doorways. The SC’s modular architecture allows the frame, wheels, and positioning options to adapt to individual needs.
A wide range of standard features and clinical options make it easy for clients and clinicians to determine priorities, consider environmental factors, and build a configuration that truly fits—without custom modifications. Two frame height options (Standard and Short) expand the seat-to-floor range, enabling tailored bathroom and transfer solutions. Independent adjustability options—like seat slope, seat aperture fore/aft adjustment capability, back angle adjustment, and rear wheel position—bring lightweight wheelchair-style configurability into a shower commode platform.
All-New Frame Colors
The ActiveAid SC offers five frame colors: Black, Red, Blue, Silver, and White. This upgrade steps beyond the monotone bath equipment norm, helping users create a chair that matches their style while keeping full clinical performance.
