At SolutionBased, we believe that everyone deserves safe, dignified, and accessible bathing—especially those living with complex medical conditions like ALS. That’s why we’re proud to announce our official partnership with Team Gleason, an organization committed to improving quality of life for people living with ALS by providing critical technology, equipment, and support.

Why This Partnership Matters

ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis) can make daily tasks like bathing incredibly difficult, placing strain on both the individual and their caregivers. Traditional bathroom remodels are often expensive, time-consuming, and not always tailored to the progressive nature of ALS.

Enter SolutionBased. Our adaptive bathing systems—like the ShowerGlyde and Showerbuddy—are designed to work in existing bathrooms without costly renovations. These systems are built to provide stability, comfort, and caregiver efficiency while accommodating changing needs over time. And now, through our partnership with Team Gleason, we’ll be getting these solutions into the homes that need them most, faster and with greater support.

What This Partnership Includes

- Shower Chair Donations & Funding Support: Through Team Gleason’s equipment program, qualified individuals with ALS can receive our bathing systems at no cost to them.

- Nationwide Access: With our Los Angeles-based studio and dedicated inside sales team, we offer personalized support through virtual evaluations and remote installation guidance. Whether you're a caregiver or a clinician, we’re here to help you choose the right setup and ensure it’s installed correctly—no matter where you are in the country.

- Tailored Solutions for ALS Needs: Our products are designed with comfort, repositioning, and transfer ease in mind, helping caregivers reduce strain and improve safety during bathing.

- Ongoing Product Development: Team Gleason’s insights into ALS-specific needs are already helping us fine-tune our upcoming MetaPal shower chair, which will bring even more adjustability and long-term usability.

Looking Ahead

We are honored to be part of Team Gleason’s mission and excited to contribute our decades of experience to serve the ALS community. Whether it’s a FaceTime evaluation, a quick shipping turnaround, or a fully custom seating solution made in our Los Angeles facility—SolutionBased is committed to making accessible bathing a reality for every person living with ALS.
