Wheelchair access to a shower bench?

[QUOTE="berkeman, post: 6821113, member: 8921"] Please tell us more about your question if you can. If you are helping to design a shower for a disabled family member or friend, that is a great thing and we want to help. In my EMS experience, nobody showers sitting in their wheelchair. They wheel into the shower and transfer to sit on the bench to shower, and push their wheelchair out of the waterstream path before turning on the water. So in your design, the wheelchair only needs to be wheeled into the shower enough for the person to lift themselves via the shower wall handrails from their wheelchair onto the shower bench, and then push their chair out of the path of the waterstream.
