Drive Medical NRS18010 Tilting Shower Commode Chair — 3-in-1 Tilt-in-Space Rehab Shower Commode | Bath Safety SW Florida

The Drive Medical NRS18010 is the go-to tilt-in-space shower commode for caregivers and therapists who need genuine tilt function in a lightweight, affordable aluminum chair. Where clinical stainless steel chairs like the ActiveAid 285 are built for institutional-intensity daily use, the NRS18010 delivers the same core tilt-in-space benefit — 30° of tilting for enhanced comfort and positioning — in a rust-resistant aluminum frame that is meaningfully lighter and easier to maneuver for home care and transitional settings.

Its 3-in-1 design earns it a place on a lot of discharge lists: it works as a rolling shower commode, positions over most standard toilets for safe toileting, and serves as a freestanding bedside commode with the included removable bucket. The padded flip-back armrests, adjustable back upholstery, swing-away detachable footrests with height and angle adjustment, and chest and waist safety straps cover the positioning and safety features most OTs look for in a home discharge chair. Supports up to 300 lbs.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does the 30° tilt actually do for the user?

Tilting the seat back redistributes pressure away from the user's tailbone and sacrum — important for anyone at pressure injury risk or who spends extended time in the chair during bathing routines. It also gives caregivers better access to the perineal area for hygiene care, and for users with limited trunk control, tilt helps maintain safe positioning without requiring the user to actively hold themselves up.

Can this chair be used over a standard toilet?

Yes. The 3-in-1 design is built to roll over most standard residential and comfort-height toilets. If you're unsure whether your toilet height will work, call us with the toilet seat height and we can confirm fit before you order. The chair also includes a removable commode bucket for use as a freestanding bedside commode anywhere in the home.

How is this different from the ActiveAid 285?

Both chairs offer tilt-in-space to 30°. The key differences are frame material and tilt mechanism. The NRS18010 uses an aluminum frame — lighter and more maneuverable, well-suited for home use and moderate daily use. The ActiveAid 285 uses a stainless steel frame built for institutional-intensity daily use, and its Gravity Assist Tilt mechanism allows infinite positioning at any angle rather than preset stops. The 285 also carries a higher weight capacity (350 vs 300 lbs). If the user has straightforward tilt needs in a home setting, the NRS18010 is often the right fit. If tilt precision matters clinically or the chair will see high-intensity daily use, the 285 is worth the step up.

Are the footrests and armrests adjustable?

Yes. The footrests swing away and detach entirely for easier transfers. They adjust for both height and footplate angle to accommodate different leg lengths and positioning needs. The armrests are padded and flip back out of the way for lateral transfers from a bed or wheelchair.

Does it come with safety straps?

Yes — both a chest strap and a waist strap are included. For users with significant postural instability or trunk weakness, these provide an important safety layer during bathing, particularly when the chair is tilted. This is a feature not always standard on lower-priced rolling shower chairs.

Is an OT assessment recommended before ordering?

For any tilt-in-space shower commode, an OT assessment is strongly recommended — to confirm tilt is clinically indicated, verify the chair fits the user's bathroom and toilet, and determine whether the 300 lb capacity and aluminum frame meet the user's needs long-term. We work regularly with OTs and discharge teams across SW Florida and can provide product information and measurements to support the process. Call us before ordering.

You can get this online free, but I bought it. Let Fanon turn your brain inside out.
I actually like the idea of supporting a press that is publishing Fanon. When I was growing up with my dad working with the SCLC and Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr., as part of the night security crew for the summer marches, I was probably more aware than most Americans -- certainly most Americans outside of the black community -- of how much permeability there was between the nonviolent SCLC, and the Black Panther movement, for which Fanon was a seed influence. Youth in the SNCC organization, the youth group associated with the SCLC, often went back and forth between SNCC and the Panthers as they developed their activist identity and their ideas of how justice might be achieved. The phrase "by any means necessary" used by the Panthers often scared the bejeezus out of the white community. But when I sat down with my father -- who was an adherent of formal nonviolence -- he handed me Fanon to read, and told me that it was a valid investigation as to whether violence should be considered if nonviolent means were not entertained by the state. To my dad, who was a peaceful but fiercely justice-oriented man (for those of you who know the idiom "fire of Amos" he had it), he considered that without the counterpoint of the Panthers, MLK would never have gotten a hearing in Washington DC. Just the idea that there were revolutionaries in American society looking at American "apartheid" and saying, "We are willing to take care of our own if you separate us. We see our situation as that of a post-colonial slavery society and use the model of African liberation as our model. We are willing to be peaceful if we are given justice in peace, but we do not believe that you are acting in good faith and will use whatever means necessary to see you follow your own promises of justice and see justice for our own people if you will not see that done." That was actually a step down from Fanon. That was actually optimism. But all white Americans heard out of any of that was: "...by any means necessary." They didn't think of how they were creating the circumstances that might precipitate violence. That whites had created a system that instituted violence to keep slaves, and later free blacks, contained and preserve power and privilege for the white majority. It is hard for most Americans to even realize that America -- although we became independent from England -- continued as a colonial nation and economy on our own continent and territory. That all the institutions of the repression and destruction of indigenous and imported-slave cultures that happened "over there" in countries that Europeans colonized far from home, we did at home as a break-away colony, and the Europeans who conquered America never relented, compromised, or acknowledged that colonial reality in the way that the Spanish, Dutch, Portuguese, Italian, French, and British Empires did in their colonial domains. So Fanon is someone worth reading, not only for Africans, or for African-Americans, but for any American or anyone else in the world who wants to better ponder white privilege in America and how it became so very different from colonial privilege as that faded in Africa, through the lens of this Algerian revolutionary philosopher, who so influenced our Panthers. I remain committed to nonviolence personally, but I understand intensely how MLK and Malcolm balance each other. And how that can actually lead to better peaceful solutions, in a social justice conflict where the status quo has been preserved by judicial and extrajudicial violence by a superior force. This is still relevant in puppet regimes all over the world. In client states of capitalist powers and of Russia and China. In the conflicts surrounding Israel, and the conflicts throughout the Middle East and Central Asia that are often couched in sectarian terms or sectarian vs secular terms. It is vital to understanding countries like Zimbabwe or South Africa, where the dynamics of early black leadership as colonial-wannabes are creating environments of corruption and scandal, and robbing their own people. Everyone should read Fanon. If you can't afford the book here, you can find it online free. This book, and Black Skin, White Masks, both highly recommended. If you don't like Marxist/Socialist politics, try to suspend disbelief a bit. The philosophy, sociology, and psychology is amazing.

Must read book on African colonial sociology and politics
Fanon describes the character of (European) colonialists, the colonised Africans (the "masses" - rural and urban, the elites, the nationalists, the tribalists) wonderfully. The book is wonderfully written - Fanon must have been a good writer. Fanon is a psychiatrist, and worked in Algeria as psychiatrist, but he many have travelled other African countries too. His book shows his deep knowledge of both African and European sociology, psychology and politics. The book is still relevant; his analysis as to what will happen after the liberation of African countries is amazingly valid. He is in a way one of the most important African (though he is born in Latin America) sociologist and political scientist. Fanon's book starts on "violence", he doesn't shy away from prescribing violence in the struggle for liberation. Some find Fanon advocating violence, but that is not the case. He puts in perspective the violence perpetrated by colonists against the resulting reaction that culminates in the violence of the colonised. His clear analysis demystifies the violence that still grips Africa. Unfortunately Fanon seems to put all European in Africa as colonists. Many cases from South Africa show that that should not be the case. But his views may be due to the brutal repression he has to witness and experience in Algeria by the French government and French citizens there.

Colonialism not dead yet
This is a review of the 2004 Grove paperback edition of Frantz Fanon’s The Wretched of the Earth The Wretched of the Earth is the most famous work of Algerian revolutionary Franz Fanon (1925-1961) finished and published shortly before his death (he died of leukemia). Fanon is known above all as a theorist of revolutionary violence and a champion of its therapeutic good for the oppressed. However, this book is not about armed struggle only; it covers many other topics: theory of class conflict in colonies, revolutionary process and subjects of social change in the Third World, the future of new independent states (former colonies), strategies of building Third World—First World relations in a right way, the relationship between the struggle for national culture and national liberation struggles, consequences of colonialism for both the colonizer and the colonized, etc. It’s a book of an angry man; the author's revolutionary pathos and standing with the oppressed (‘the wretched of the earth’) are noticeable. Though Fanon wrote his book drawing on the experience of the Africa of the 1950s an acute reader can easily notice similarities and parallels with what’s going on in the underdeveloped countries all over the world. The book can be of particular use for anthropologists, historians, philosophers, sociologists, as well as for those interested in cultural studies. I prefer Richard Philcox’s translation to the one published in 1963. Citizens of the global South can skip Jean-Paul Sartre’s preface; let the author speak for himself.
