Tips to Keep Your Home Safe for All

August 2015
 
 

Greetings!  
 
Have you been enjoying your summer?  The New England weather has been delightful and we at Home Healthsmith have been extremely busy.  As you know we are always on the lookout for new products and we are excited to announce that we are now an exclusive dealer of the Shower Bay by Forward Bay.  "We are extremely excited to bring Home Healthsmith on board and I think the Shower Bay will be a great addition to your product/service mix!" - Russell Simpkins, Vice President, Forward Day LLC.

 
Stayed tuned for more information or stop in at The Center for Adaptive Living at High Point located at 207 High Point Ave, #2 in Portsmouth.  We have recently set up a demo unit so that everyone can see how unique and easy this product is to use.  We will also be offering rentals for this product so please call us for pricing and more information.

 New Product of the Month:
Shower Safely without Remodeling
  
 Shower Bay is a safe and portable shower designed for wheelchair users. It provides a true shower experience without dangerous wet-environment transfers or expensive home renovations. Shower Bay's unique design allows for quick assembly in any room of the home. Once the unit is snapped together, connected to a standard faucet, and the pump turned on, it is now ready for anyone to enjoy.    
 
A daily shower should be enjoyed, not dreaded. The warm, gentle massage of water running through our hair and down our back is one of the best parts of our day. Most of us take this rejuvenating sensation for granted, but many people with mobility limitations miss their shower time because it's too dangerous and time-consuming for a family member or caregiver to assist them.
 
Shower Bay is a great option for Home Owners in avoiding a costly and time consuming bathroom remodel; Renters who generally cannot modify or remodel their apartment or home; Injury Rehab Patients who have a need for a temporary bathing solution during the rehabilitation process and the Temporary Living Situations for families that have a loved one with mobility limitations living with them temporarily.
 
Shower Bay may be used in a bathroom but it was also designed to work in any room of the house.  We realize that most bathrooms are not large enough for adequate wheelchair maneuverability.  It most cases Shower Bay is set up in the corner of a bedroom or spare area of the home, such as a den or laundry room.
