Bedroom 1

Commode (free standing)

I want to...

  • be able to use the toilet safely at night time

 

  • I need help at night to get to the toilet

Benefits

A free standing commode at the side of the bed will reduce the risk of falls if you are finding it difficult to get to the toilet. 

Things to consider

  • Consider the placement of the commode (if you are likely to sit down heavily on the commode, position it against a wall to reduce the risk of tipping).
  • Commodes are often height adjustable so you can set it to the required height for you.
  • Weight restrictions will apply.
