Find Assisted Living Bathroom Products For Your Bathroom 

 

What is Assisted Living?

Assisted Living covers a wide range of products that are specifically designed for people who struggle with their mobility. Incorporating assisted living into a home, allows the user to become more independent. From grab rails to showers, at Victorian Plumbing you can find everything you need to make your bathroom safe and accessible.

 

Bundles and Packs

If you are looking to make your bathroom fully accessible, then choosing from one of our assisted living packs is a great option. The Doc M Packs consist of accessible toilets and handrails that meet regulations for public use. These packs are a great option for someone looking to install assisted living products for the first time.They are available in a variety of different sizes so no matter the size of bathroom you’re working with, you will find the perfect fit for your space.

 

What Individual Products Are Available?

Alternatively, there are also individual products that are available for those who are looking to add minor upgrades to make their bathroom more accessible. Such as accessible basins, toilets and walk-in baths.

 

Accessible Basins

Accessible basins are designed to create a comfortable experience for people with mobility issues. They come in a wide range of styles such as wall hung and pedestal, so you are sure to find the perfect basin to suit your needs and your style. A wall hung basin will work exceptionally well for someone who is a wheelchair user. The open space underneath the sink allows you to get closer to the taps, allowing you to use your basin a lot easier without any awkward and uncomfortable reaching or stretching.

 

Accessible Toilets

From modern wall hung to traditional floor standing, accessible toilets come in a wide range of styles, all designed with comfort and easy access in mind. A comfort height toilet allows the user to access their toilet much easier than a standard height one. With such a wide variety to choose from, you won’t find it difficult to find the perfect height that meets your requirements.

 

Assisted Living Taps

If you struggle to use a standard tap, you should consider an assisted living tap. There are so many options available when it comes to assisted living taps. So it is important to recognise which style will work best for you. If you struggle to grip a standard tap, then opting for a lever handle tap is a great way to make your routine easier. For some people who struggle to turn a tap handle, or who struggle to reach over a basin, a sensor tap will eliminate the handle completely. Giving you a safe water temperature without turning any handles.

 

Assisted Living Showers

For people to struggle with their grip, adjusting the shower temperature or the height of the shower head can be quite difficult. Assisted living showers come with a wide range of features that work to make your shower experience easier for the user. There are also so many options available, from a modern chrome finish to a contemporary matt black, you don’t have to worry about compromising on style.

 

Walk-In Baths

If you enjoy a relaxing bath, but struggle to climb in and out of a generic one, then a walk-in bath is a must have. These eliminate the need to climb over a bath panel, which can be quite a challenge for someone who struggles with their mobility. You also have the opinion to add a sit-in bath. These take up much less room and allow the user to enjoy a bath without having to lie down. This is a great option if you struggle to lie down and sit back up again.

 

Grab Rails

One of the most important aspects of an accessible bathroom is safety. Grab rails are a must have in an assisted living bathroom as they provide stability and make the bathroom easier to navigate. There are also grab rails that are designed to assist the user more specifically, such as toilet grab rails and in-shower grab rails, making every aspect of your bathroom safe and accessible.
