Grab Rail With Toilet Roll Holder

£46.00

Combining the grab rail and toilet roll holder saves space and ensures the toilet roll is in a convenient position

Standard toilet roll holders are often used as an aid to standing up from the toilet, but as they’re not designed for this purpose this often leads to damage of the toilet roll holder or the wall, or in some cases it may result in a fall.

  • High contrast colours make them easier to see
  • Falls can be avoided with a thoughtfully sited Grab Rail With Toilet Roll Holder

 

Description

Grab Rail With Toilet Roll Holder

Dementia and bathroom accidents can be minimalised. We take finding the toilet for granted yet we’ve all experienced the stress and anxiety of needing the toilet and not being able to locate one. However, when dementia is involved, the frustrations are multiplied many times over. Raised levels of agitation, anxiety, stress and depression all add to the problem.

The reason some people with dementia can experience difficulties using the toilet, in some cases, is because of a medical condition such as a urinary tract infection. Constipation, caused by a poor diet or dehydration and side effects from certain medication are also a few possible causes. In other situations, it could be that they are not able to find, recognise, or use the toilet.

Find’s toilet strategy is all about using highly visible, high contrast colour to establish a clear route to the toilet, and once there, to use the same principles to ‘decipher’ that environment by making the important things like a  Grab Rail With Toilet Roll Holder and the toilet itself, easier to see. This boosts confidence and independence as well as helping to maintain or restore dignity.

By implementing a few changes, you will not only help enable a person with dementia to carry out their daily living activities without distress, embarrassment or a reluctance to use the bathroom, but you will also reduce healthcare-related costs, which include money spent on additional laundry and incontinence products and the additional staff time required to help a person use them.
