Bidet toilet seats for the disabled
Posted by Bidets2go on 5th Dec 2022
Bidet
toilet seats or under-toilet seat bidet attachments are of particular
benefit to people with disabilities or special needs, those who struggle
with cleaning and for those who are finding it increasingly difficult
to remain independent. If you or someone you know falls in this
category, an attachable bidet toilet seat or under-toilet seat bidet
attachment may be of benefit by simplifying the cleaning process.
One
of the most important benefits to people with disabilities that is
often overlooked is that using a bidet toilet seat or under-toilet seat
bidet attachment helps them retain their dignity, not to mention making
it easier for carers.
Bidet toilet seats and under-toilet seat
bidet attachments differ from traditional freestanding ceramic bidets in
that they do not require the user to traverse from one unit to another
for cleaning. By simply replacing the existing toilet seat with an
attachable bidet toilet seat or by placing an under-toilet seat bidet
attachment directly under the toilet seat, the user remains on a single
unit without having to move, making it more convenient and safer.
Making
the move to a bidet toilet seat or under-toilet seat bidet attachment
is an ideal choice for those who always feel unclean after having
struggled to clean themselves efficiently. Wiping becomes unnecessary as
all of the cleaning functions are performed by the bidet unit. Electric
models go even further in assisting by completing the cleaning process
with an inbuilt drying function. The drier blows warm air onto the skin,
drying it before leaving the toilet seat.
There is a lot less
exertion required for people who have a limited range of motion because
they do not have to strain to reach out and wipe themselves. Instead,
they simply press a button (on electric models) or use the adjustable
knobs (on non-electric models) to turn on the water for an automatic
wash.
Another advantage of using a bidet toilet seat or
under-toilet seat bidet attachment, is the potential to reduce the
number of baths or showers a disabled individual might take in order to
feel ‘clean’.
Many bidet toilet seats and under-toilet seat bidet
attachments also work with arm rests and grab bars that attach to the
wall floor.
