Sponge bath is ok but sometimes a good soak bath is better. Being very independent, occasionally, he finds himself stuck in the tub. I don't know how to assist him out. Weighing about 300lbs. & Do you know if there is rebath assistance for disabled patients on Medicare?

This is one brand but there are several. Rehab centers and hospitals often use the same brand, but I don't remember the name of it now. They probably buy in bulk though.

What does "rebath" mean? Are you asking if Medicare is going to pay for you to remodel your bathtub?
