I got me a safety bench with raised handles on both sides of the bench for the walk in shower after my hip replacement surgery in January. I do not need one that has a sit on and slide over as I do not have a TUB any more. We converted our main bath into a Walk In Shower with less than a 2 inch high step over. I also did not install glass doors so I have a wide open shower to step into.
Thought maybe would get some of these needed items while the getting was good.. I have postponed the surgery until January sometime. The surgical center at the orthopedic groups office building is in the process of being approved as a provider by my insurance and has been in the works for two months now so I believe all will be good by January. If not, I will simply have to go to another hospital.
I asked Doc if while he had me on the table naked iffen he could replace my knee at the same time so when I woke up the Hip and the knee joint would both be done and I did not have to go through this again next year. Getting a little tired of major surgeries. Getting too old to recover quickly.
Thanks for the advice on the sitting safety stool/bench.
I suspect a hand held shower wand may be needed also..
