Tracey, if you want low cost medical equipment, goodwill and hospice thrifts are a good resource. I support what you are doing for your heart dad, and am sorry for the horrible accident he incurred while doing a good deed.

I am in a lantana, which has seats in both showers...perhaps replacing a shower head with a hand held would be an inexpensive fix as you already have seating in the bathroom. I can give you the name of an inexpensive handy guy to replace the shower head.
Thank you for filling us in with details. I hope the community continues to support your effort and that your goal of transitioning him toward independence is successful.
I apologize for any emotional injury to you during this difficult time...it is not easy to get the whole picture from a few words and my questions were intended to be practical, although obviously they seemed negative to many.
