Toilets for people with disabilities

 

— toilets for people with disabilities use various design solutions that significantly “make life easier” for users who have health problems and difficulties in solving everyday problems.

One of the characteristic features in most of these models is the increased height: this reduces the load on the joints, sitting on such a toilet and getting up from it is noticeably easier than in the case of a conventional one. But the set of other specific functions may be different, it should be specified separately. So, some products are equipped with a cutout in the front, which facilitates hygiene procedures after the toilet. Others have their own handrails or the possibility of installing them (here note that such a design puts forward increased requirements for the reliability of fastening the bowl itself). Particular attention, usually, is paid to the flush button: it can have a non-standard location, increased dimensions, be made in the form of a pedal or a proximity sensor, etc.

In conclusion, we emphasize that there is no universal toilet that is perfect for all users with disabilities. Such plumbing is quite diverse, it can be designed for different features of health and physique, so the choice of such a toilet is a very specific task that requires a careful individual approach.
