No More Slips, Trips or Falls with Rane Walk-in Tubs

A common goal for workplace safety is “no more slips, trips and falls.” That is also one of the major missions for Rane Bathing and Accessibility as they design, manufacture and install any of their highly rated Walk-in Tubs in private homes. No Walk-in Tub company has more experience and knowledge about safety and accessibility in healthcare settings than Rane. Their founder was instrumental in pioneering the field of Walk-in Tubs for hospitals, long-term care facilities, assisted living settings and therapeutic clinics. This family-owned, American-made company has now spanned three generations with combined 80 years of experience in designing, creating and installing safe affordable Walk-in Tubs in healthcare settings and in private residences.

Safety First

Since Rane’s long history began with designing bathing options for patients in healthcare settings, their utmost goal has always been to provide those with mobility issues access to safe, easy access while bathing. Their designs for healthcare always include ways to keep both care-giver and patient safe in wet slippery settings. Statistics prove that residential and clinical bathrooms hold the highest rate of dangerous falls. As you can imagine, healthcare standards for safeguarding against falls while bathing are stringent. Rane brings all those same safety features they have been using for decades in healthcare settings into their residential Walk-in Tubs. Every single new design has to meet their “No slips, trips or falls” standards.

Safe Accessibility

Most slips, trips and falls while bathing occur while entering or exiting the tub. Years of designs and innovations have made Rane Walk-in Tubs the safest tubs available. Perhaps you or a loved one needs to transfer from a wheelchair to the tub. Rane has a model that will best suit your needs, depending on the amount of mobility you have. Perhaps you or a loved one needs more accessible bathing due to an illness, accident, long recovery, stroke or heart issues, or aging has made bathing increasingly difficult. Every little feature and line of a Rane Walk-in Tub is created to make bathing safer, more conducive to independent bathing and comfortable enjoyment.

Safety Features

Of course, a Walk-in Tub raises the standard of safety immediately because it eliminates lifting legs up and over a wet slippery tub rim. The availability of various doors offers easy safe access and allow you to easily transfer, walk right in or back in to sit down in a safe contoured seat that is in a reclined position offering a lovely spa-like experience in the safest Walk-in Tub available. A Rane professional will be honored to point out many more safety features that means no more slips, trips or falls!

Safety First

At the top of the list for Rane Tubs, safety is always first. The wet slippery floors of the bathroom make it the most dangerous room in the home as far as falls are concerned. In designing, crafting and installing—Rane strives for “no slips, trips or falls.” One of the main reasons people begin looking for a walk-in tub is because it is more difficult to safely lift legs over the tub to get in or out. Rane offers a variety of models which help anyone with any degree of mobility to transfer from a wheelchair or simply step into a tub. Getting up and down in a traditional tub is a dangerous, if not impossible, feat for many. That’s why Rane began designing and making accessible tubs decades ago for healthcare facilities.

Decades of Innovations

Because Rane Bathing and Accessibility has been meeting the needs of bathing for large numbers of people in healthcare settings, they have learned how to make their lovely line of tubs strong enough to hold the heaviest patients and a large amount of people. That means the strongest Walk-in Tubs are now available to install in your own home. Rane has learned through the years how to design and which parts will last the longest. Because they have been a leader in Composite material and molding manufacturing, they know the strong marine grade material used for boats is the same strength needed for Rane tubs.

Strong but Elegant and Functional

This particular piece focuses on the strength of Rane Walk-in Tubs, but as mentioned before, safety is always first. The KeyLock™ and choices of doors ensures no leaks, molded seating designed for comfort and safety, the luster of the gel finish on the marine grade material are a few more strong reasons to check out Rane Walk-in Tubs. The exquisite design gives an upscale feel to your existing bathroom while letting you simply step in and sit down to a relaxing healthy bath. The lovely lines are not just for looks.

Walk-in Tubs and the Chill Factor

Walk-in Tubs and the Chill Factor

Many people are opting to install Walk-in Tubs in their private homes. There are multiple reasons – safety, easier accessibility, to get your home ready to age-in-place and the convenience of simply stepping into a luxurious bathing experience. Rane Bathing and Accessibility has been designing Accessible Bathing for healthcare institutions for more than thirty years. They are the most respected Walk-in Tub company due to all their knowledge and expertise. The founder of this family-owned company was a pioneer in the Walk-in Tub industry. Creating and installing accessible bathing tubs for more than three decades for use in long-term care facilities, assisted living settings, hospitals, and therapeutic clinics has provided a lot of opportunities for professional health care input. There are so many reasons a Rane Walk-in Tub is the best but this blog will focus on the “chill factor.”

Minimizing the Chill Factor

Although safety and accessibility are the predominant features Rane focuses on, they also design for comfort. One of the things that makes a bath more comforting is to shorten the time the bather is exposed without clothes in a wet condition. That is what Rane calls the “Chill Factor.” There is nothing more soothing and relaxing than a nice warm bath. Getting in and out can be a little chilly, though. Rane designers work hard to shorten that time so bathing can be the most pleasant experience possible for those with and without mobility challenges.

Fastest Filling and Draining Walk-in Tub

Rane Bathing and Accessibility offers a number of models and options of Walk-in Tubs for home use. A lot of thought and engineering goes into minimizing those chilly moments as the tub fills and drains. Rane Tubs have exquisite lines that present their tubs as an upscale spa in your own bathroom at an affordable price. Those lines are not just for beauty, though. Each line is molded into Rane’s Tubs to minimize the amount of water used and the time required to fill the tub. A smaller space and volume of water is required around the feet and legs than around the body. Rane Tubs fill quickly once you have stepped in or transferred from a wheelchair to sit on the ergonomic contoured seating. The tub also drains quickly due to those same design elements.

Long Warm Baths – Short Chill Time

Rane Walk-in tubs are so easy to enter. The special design of their KeyLock™ Doors allow the doors to seal with no leakage so the tubs fill quickly surrounding you in warm refreshing water. Optional Jet sprays and heaters create a spa atmosphere in the lovely Rane Tubs. The contoured seating and tub design offer optimal relaxing comfort so you can take as long a bath as you want. The health benefits of bathing go far beyond simple cleaning to refresh, renew and relax the mind, body and soul.
