Many of us have an aging parent or family member that we are trying to help with. Possibly, a handicapped member of your family needs help bathing. Sometimes it can be hard when you have limited capabilities to do even the most basic tasks, such as bathing yourself. There is a great solution out there for those with physical limitations, called a Walk In Bathtub. IMI is excited that we can offer these tubs, which can provide a wonderful way for your parent or physically challenged family member to keep their independence and enjoy the rejuvenating effects of a cleansing bath.

IMI actually has two options; you can purchase one or rent one. We have a special website set up here that gives you more information on the renting of a walk in tub. If you are interested in more information in the purchase or rental of one, you can call (678) 501-6010 and speak with Joel, our Certified Aging-In-Place Specialist (CAPS).

One great thing about Walk In Bathtubs is they’re standard size bathtubs, so they’ll fit in the same space your old bathtub occupied. What makes them so helpful for elderly or handicapped persons is that they have a door built into the side, so you can just walk in to the tub, rather than lifting your legs and hips to get in and out of the bathtub. Walk In Bathtubs also have non-slippery surfaces, so the common slip and fall bathing accidents and injuries can be avoided.

If you’ve been looking at options for your elderly or physically challenged parent or family member, Walk In Bathtubs provide a great solution. Walk In Bathtubs are easy to use, safe, and allow your loved ones to maintain their independence for the private task of bathing. IMI has a wide range of bath products that will meet all your bathroom needs.  In addition to the walk in tubs we also offer, walk in showers, showers made with a wheelchair accessible ramp and corner seats for the shower that can be added to your existing shower.
