Transfer bench ready for use. A transfer bench (also known as a showering bench, shower bench, transfer tub bench, or transfer chair) is a bath safety mobility device on which the user sits to get into a bathtub. The user usually sits on the bench, which straddles the side of the tub, and gradually slides from the outside to the inside of the tub.
Walk-in bathtubs have either an inward-opening or cap-like fitted door, descending to near ground level to allow a person to enter the tub without climbing over its side; the door is self-sealing. [1] Most walk-in bathtubs also have a chair-height seat, but some, which are the same basic configuration as a standard bathtub, do not have any seat.

James Heath, of Bath, who flourished before the middle of the 18th century, was the inventor of the bath chair, [1] where bathing in the Roman Baths or visiting the nearby Pump Room was popular amongst sick visitors. [2] Later versions were a type of wheelchair which is pushed by an attendant rather than pulled by an animal.
