Commodes & Shower Commode Chairs
Browse our range of commodes and shower commode chairs, designed to support patients with limited mobility while preserving comfort and dignity. Vena Cava supplies mobile commodes, tilting shower chairs, and bariatric models from Medi-Plinth, Shuttleworth, Bristol Maid, Sidhil, and Alerta — suitable for hospitals, care homes, community nursing, and home healthcare settings across the UK.
Mobile & Bedside Commodes
Our mobile commodes feature locking castors, removable buckets, and height-adjustable frames for safe bedside use. Models range from lightweight stackable designs for multi-bed wards to self-propelled chairs that give patients greater independence. Padded seats and ergonomic armrests are standard across most models for sustained comfort during use.
Shower Commode Chairs & Tilting Models
Combined shower and commode chairs eliminate the need for multiple transfers, reducing manual handling risks for both patients and carers. Our tilting shower commodes offer manual or electric height adjustment, hygiene seat openings, and safe working loads from 150 kg up to 200 kg for bariatric patients. The Phoenix 200 bariatric model adds powered recline for complex care needs.
Choosing the Right Commode
Consider the patient's weight capacity requirements, whether self-propulsion or attendant-push is needed, and whether the commode will double as a shower chair. All our commodes meet relevant safety standards and are built for easy cleaning and infection control in clinical environments.
