The invention is an improved bath device for patients, particularly bedridden, wheelchair dependent, and incontinent patients. The bath device is portable and provides a flow or liquid by gravity. The bath device is designed to operate independently or co-jointly which another form of incontinent equipment. The portable bath device is compact and easily carried or transported on a mobile facility. The bath device is constructed of flexible water-proof material that also has insulating qualities. The bath device has an inlet or fill port, a vent, and an outlet, each of which is sealable. The bath device has a facility for hanging the bath device on portable supports in a manner that facilitates complete use of all the contained liquid.
