Bath back rest/seat

Definition

A device designed to support the back, and sometimes buttocks, of a patient (usually an adult) who is bathing in a bath (usually while being attended/assisted) to enable the patient to sit in an upright, and sometimes elevated, position in the bath. The patient is typically disabled, infirm, or undergoing medical treatment and cannot sit normally in a bath. The device may be a back rest only or a seat with an incorporated back rest, typically made of water-resistant or waterproof materials; it may be laid across the rim of the bath or secured to the bath. The device may be used in a hospital, institution, or home.
