Shower and care beds: Ergonomics and safety for professional care
Nursing care in hospitals, nursing homes, and rehabilitation facilities places the highest demands on technical equipment. A high-quality shower and care couch forms the backbone of an accessible care bathroom. It not only enables dignified and safe transfers for the patient but also sustainably protects the health of nursing staff through ergonomic height adjustment and intuitive operation. Our systems are specifically designed for the heavy demands of continuous use and combine uncompromising hygiene with maximum comfort.
Stationary and mobile solutions for everyday care
When planning care facilities, choosing the right shower stretcher and changing table is crucial for efficient workflows. While wall-mounted, foldable models are particularly space-saving in smaller rooms, mobile versions offer maximum flexibility for transfers between different functional areas. All our products are characterized by robust materials that are resistant to disinfectants and prolonged exposure to moisture.
Safety and infection control
A modern shower bed and care bed must meet strict hygiene requirements. Our models feature seamless upholstery and water-repellent surfaces that prevent bacterial growth. Side rails with safety locks protect the patient from falls, while integrated drainage systems allow for controlled drainage of shower water. This is particularly important in intensive care settings, where every second and every action counts.

Electric adjustments offer maximum convenience at the touch of a button, but require a power outlet or battery operation. Hydraulic systems operate independently and are ideal for areas where a power supply is not possible or desired.
The lying surfaces are slightly inclined or have drainage channels. A flexible drain hose directs the water straight into a floor drain or a building-provided drainpipe to prevent waterlogging in the room.
