Bathroom shower equipment (commodes) at Aidacare | Community Health TV - Ep 7
Channel: Community Therapy
Date: 2022-03-17

Shower commodes are designed to assist people who have difficulty using the toilet or standing for long periods in the shower. They can also improve safety by reducing the number of transfers required for bathroom tasks.

Ally, from Aidacare, was kind enough to talk us through their range of shower commodes and accessories to meet the different needs of the user.

Their products include self-propelled commode chairs that provide independence, along with standard shower commodes and tilt in space shower commodes.

Sometimes we can think of a piece of equipment like this as relatively easy to prescribe, and it certainly can be in some circumstances. But often it's the interplay of the pieces of equipment and the environment in someone's home that is usually the most complex thing to figure out.

An #OccupationalTherapist is able to take you through these things and find the best options to make sure that some of the main things that we do in a day, like showering or toileting, can be done in a comfortable and safe manner, and also in a way that maximises independence.
