Oxford Poolside Dipper
with Spreader Bar
Product Details
For aiding in swimming pool transfers, Essential Aids provides the excellent and popular Oxford Poolside Dipper.
It is ideal for use with disabled people who need assistance in getting in and out of the pool.
The user can sit in the sling seat and be transferred from the changing room into the pool.
A wide range of fitting socket options allows the dipper to be compatible with the majority of poolside locations.
The Oxford Dipper must have a socket fixing in the floor for it to work. If you do not already have this fitting, please see Oxford Dipper Fixings in this category and choose the appropriate socket for your pool.
A durable construction means that the dipper can also be used on outside pools.
The Oxford Dipper is available with either a spreader bar or with the Ranger commode and transporter. If you want both of those options, it's best to buy the version with the Ranger along with a separate Spreader Bar Assembly (available in this category).
The spreader bar option can be used with any standard loop slings like our Oxford Slings - people often use net slings for bathing as they are quick to dry.
The Ranger Commode and Transporter option is a chair component that is mounted on sturdy castors and provides a comfortable means of transport to the pool side. When the Ranger reaches the hoist, the seat can be lifted from its wheeled base, repositioned over the water and then gently lowered into the water.
