  • the side parts 2, 3 are arranged at such a distance from one another that they in the middle area of the seat element 1 with their inner longitudinal sides facing each other delimit a gap or a care opening 4 extending from the rear, which is essentially the same width everywhere.
  • the width of the care opening 4 and the length of the side parts 2, 3 is e.g.
  • the width of the nursing opening 4 is also such that it covers the genital area, in particular the area of the perineum of the people sitting on the seating element 1 releases, whereby to dimension the width of the care opening 4, of course, a usual Height determined average can be used.
  • the support surfaces 2a, 3a of the side parts 2, 3 are essentially in the exemplary embodiment flat, but preferably go up and back at their rear ends slightly rising, sloping or curved drain surfaces 5 over, so when cleaning liquids used and contaminants from the treated persons can flow to and from the sides and not accidentally Accumulate in the hard-to-reach back areas of the shower wash seat.
  • the described arrangement of the side parts 2 and 3 creates the possibility of them on their front ends by means of a cross strut 6, for example a round rod Plastic, firmly connected to each other without thereby access to the care opening 4 from the point of view.
  • a cross strut 6 for example a round rod Plastic
