the wetroom which may be all you can use in future but have the option of an occassional bath and you wouldnt need the equipment to get in. You can lie on your bed and roll onto an inflatable bath which is then inflated around you. There is one, called 'Inflatable bath', on the Living Made Easy website. I used one at work when I was a support worker. I have no experiences of social-housing but i understand the reservations of the social housing provider regarding a bath. Being unable to get in or out of a bath unaided myself I would choose a shower everytime. Lifts, hoists etc either need power or someone else to operate them and physically having to lift someone out of the bath is nearly impossible even from the sitting position. You can get baths with 'doors' but what they don't tell you is you have to get in and out when the bath is empty which takes an age and costs more in heat to keep warm
