Description
Flexibility - The versatile Nuvo Adjustable Bath Step consists of three stacking 2in step sections with 1in overlap and four support pillars. When stacked together the step sections give a 4in step. Use a single step section with a minimum of two support pillars for a 2in step, add a second step section for a 3in step, or use with all three sections stacked as the 4in step. You can also place two of the support pillars in each of two steps, which can be linked together laterally, and the third step placed on top of one of these to give a 2in and 3in combined step. Step sections can be stacked up to 6 high (two Nuvo Adjustable Bath Steps would need to be purchased for this) to give a 7in maximum raise. Security - Each Bath Step section has non-slip feet, so the Bath Step remains secure on a wide range of bathroom floor surfaces. The top surface of each step has a specially designed surface texture that is both comfortable on the feet, but also provides excellent resistance to slipping, even when the client has wet feet. The support pillars provide additional strength and support to the Bath Step, giving greater confidence to the user when standing on the step. A recess, on the side of each section, allows the step to be picked up easily from the floor when required. Style - Attractive styling and a bright white finish, enable the Bath Step to complement a wide range of bathroom colour schemes and styles. Colour co-ordinated to other bathroom products in the Nuvo range. Manufactured in polypropylene.

Seek further help if a bath or box step is the only solution offered
Following your online assessment you have only been offered a bath or box step. If you feel this does not meet your needs, please seek further advice from your local Independent Living Centre or alternatively by your local Adult Services department. There may be other products to help you. Please explain that you have already completed an online assessment because you are having difficulty lifting your legs into the bath and that it was recommended that you seek further help.
