The Freedom Over Toilet Aid is the usual first step for a client who is struggling to rise from a low toilet at home. It is a height adjustable frame that stands over the existing pan and brings its own seat, so the client sits higher and has an arm on each side to push up from.
The seat is wide, made from high density plastic and lifts off for cleaning, and a lid and splash guard are included. The S bend arms curve outward, which gives more room between them than a straight arm frame: useful for a client who needs space to manage clothing or who simply feels boxed in. The powder coated aluminium frame sits on slip resistant rubber tips and is light enough for a family member to lift out of the way when other people use the toilet.
It suits clients with weak hip and knee extensors, arthritis, or post surgical precautions who need a higher seat and bilateral arm support for toileting.
Good to know
- Simple assembly on delivery, no fixing to the floor or the pan
- Fits over a standard toilet, so check pan height and clearance behind the frame
- Splash guard is included to direct flow into the pan
