Modified bath lift
This 90 year old lady lives alone and sometimes has dizzy spells. When this happens she lowers herself to sit on the floor but is unable to get up without assistance. As her carer only comes twice a day, she can have a long wait for help.
A bath lift was modified to stand vertical on the floor. Chocks under the frame made the seat horizontal. A battery box with switch close at hand completed the installation.
She is able to get to the lift and lift herself up until she can stand unaided.
