Raised Toilet Seat
Considering a Raised Toilet seat for Your Home?
If you are thinking about investing in a raised toilet seat for yourself or your loved one, you've come to the right place.
It's no secret that the bathroom can be a dangerous place to navigate for individuals with mobility challenges.
It is estimated that 79% of bathroom-related injuries among 65 and older individuals are due to slips and falls, and 33% of those elderly individuals who experience an accident in the bathroom require hospital admission.
One of the most strenuous areas of a bathroom for mobility challenged individuals is the toilet.
The strain and balance it takes to lower down onto or rise from a toilet seat can make using the restroom extremely difficult and dangerous.
A raised toilet seat is a great way to make a mobility challenged individuals bathroom experience safer and more comfortable.
