PIP washing and bathing was created by wheelzinmotion

Hello I use a bespoke customized shower chair to so that I can be seated more upright to shower independently. However, transferring into the shower chair can be unsafe due to very poor balance. Once in, it takes me a long time to shower. Do you need to state how long to get higher points? I would hope to get higher than 2 given that the shower chair is bespoke to my needs and that it takes me a long time and is difficult to clean certain areas. Thanks

You need to read the Descriptors for Washing and Bathing, the criteria you need to meet changes as the points go up, at the moment I don't think that there is anything in your post that suggests that you would score higher although you hint that you might meet a higher Descriptor.
