The Variable Height Gemini Bath for Bathers Needing Specialist Care (timelapse)

For bathers needing specialist care, the Gemini bath from Abacus Healthcare, is a fully height adjustable bath that comes with an integrated variable-height platform to assist with bathing, drying and changing.

Bathers sit on the platform and the bath is then raised, gently immersing them in a relaxing bath. The bath and the bather can then be raised to a comfortable working height for the carer. 

 After bathing, the platform becomes a drying and changing table, avoiding a wet transfer out of the bath. In fact, an overall benefit of the Gemini is that it significantly reduces the number of transfers required – making the bathing experience less tiring, safer and more pleasurable for bathers and carers alike. 

The Gemini is suitable for use with ceiling track hoists and mobile hoists, for bathers requiring specialist assistance.  ‪
