Shower Chair PVC w/Outrigger & Swivel Movement

The MJM International Shower Chair with Outrigger & Swivel Movement is a specialized mobility and hygiene chair designed to provide enhanced stability, maneuverability, and safe positioning during bathing and toileting. Built with MJM’s signature healthcare-grade PVC frame, this chair is rust-proof, lightweight, and engineered for long-term use in wet environments.

What sets this model apart is its outrigger base design combined with swivel movement capability, which significantly improves balance and reduces tipping risk during transfers or repositioning. The wide outrigger stance increases stability, while the swivel feature allows caregivers to rotate or reposition the user with minimal effort, making it especially useful in tight bathroom spaces or during assisted care routines.

Equipped with smooth-rolling casters, a supportive seat, and ergonomic frame design, this chair can be used as a shower chair, bedside commode (with compatible pail), or transport chair. It is ideal for both homecare and clinical environments where safe transfers and controlled movement are essential.
