Why the BathMobile is easy to clean

With years of experience in the design of assistive devices for older people and people with disabilities; we have listened to what you require from a toilet and shower chair and understand that it needs to be practical and simple to care for.

We have brought our world class mechanical engineering innovation and ingenuity to develop a flexible, practical solution.

Looking after the BathMobile will help it remain in good condition and last longer. Read more about how our design makes caring for your product easy.

It’s Modular

  • Why does a modular system help you? It means it can rapidly be taken apart into individual parts. No tools are necessary. 

It’s easy to clean

  • The modular system makes the BathMobile quick to wash and dry, enabling easy access to corners and underside of individual parts. 
  • If the BathMobile is used in a healthcare setting, the individual parts can be placed in an autoclave for sterilising.

It’s quick to take apart and put back together

  • With no need for tools, the Bath Mobile modular system can be put back together in a few clicks! 
  • The BathMobile shower chair folds easily for storage in a dry location, ready for the next use

Shower and toilet chairs should be cleaned and wiped down regularly with a cloth and gentle cleaning product.

  • The toilet pan should be cleaned with soap after every use
  • The shower chair should be wiped dry with a cloth after every use

The bathroom is a challenging environment for homecare products. Humidity, moisture, water, cleaning agents and urine; all present challenges for the condition of a product. 

So why is the BathMobile toilet commode and shower chair equipped to do so well in the bathroom environment?

Challenge

Advantages of plastic for homecare products

Bathroom environment

Bathrooms are often humid places and moisture is released into the air by something as simple as taking a shower. Ventilation helps reduce this but homecare products need to be resistant to potential damage from moisture, mould and water. 

The BathMobile toilet commode and shower chair is made from high quality plastics with stainless steel fasteners, resistant to moisture and water damage.

Urine damage

Accidental leaks of urine can occur when a person has difficulty unfastening, or removing their clothing in time to use a toilet commode chair. Urine is corrosive to homecare product materials but plastic is corrosion resistant, making it a great choice for homecare products.

 

Utilising the advantages of modern plastics, our products are;

  • strong and light weight
  • durable
  • resistant to mould and corrosion with
  • smooth, easy wipe surfaces for minimum maintenance.

The BathMobile combines the function of a folding shower and toilet chair with wheels, with the benefits of plastic; to offer you the best in toilet and shower chair solutions. 

Travelling with the Wheelable

For many of us, travel involves planning. For people with disabilities, or older people, travelling may require mapping out a journey: from leaving home to planning breaks and arriving at the end destination, identifying potential barriers along the way. This can feel exhausting before even opening the door to leave home! 

With the WheelAble, a travel commode and shower chair, our aim it to bring opportunities for spontaneity and travel, giving you freedom and independence to do the trips that you want to do, rather than being limited to what seems to be accessible to you. 

Whether your journey involves;

  • Airport, train, or bus transfers,
  • connecting journeys,
  • transfer to accommodation or 
  • getting out and about once you arrive,

the WheelAble has been designed with the aim of giving you choices and making travel easier.

Utilising world class mechanical engineering innovation and ingenuity, the WheelAble is a combined shower and toilet commode; with folding mechanism, creating an ultra-compact and streamlined product for transport, with its own ergonomic case. No need to carry, it can easily be wheeled and placed on luggage trolleys at airports; in luggage racks on trains or inside luggage compartments in buses. Weighing under 12kg, it can simply be placed in the back of a car and still leave space for the rest of your luggage.

For the more adventurous, the WheelAble can be used camping or for off-road trips and unplanned stops, offering a greater sense of freedom. If you are looking for a product with extra skin protection, the WheelAble also has an option for an upholstered padded seat.

The WheelAble can open more accommodation opportunities. The toilet chair simply converts to a shower chair by changing the seat; two products in one simple, compact portable design. At less than 20” wide, it can fit through narrow doorways, allowing access to bedrooms and bathrooms, which may be inaccessible in a wheelchair. The wheelable toilet chair fits easily over any type of toilet up to 18.5” or 47cm in height, to make it easier to use. No difficult transfers, the Wheelable wheels simply into place over the toilet. If the doorway is a barrier, the toilet pan allows the WheelAble to be used in any private space, giving confidence that there is a toileting solution wherever you go! 

If space in the room is limited, the WheelAble folds to a width of just 9”, requiring minimal space for storage. In a few seconds, it can be back in position when needed. Engineered from high quality plastic, it can rapidly be wiped down and packed away, ready to move on to the next destination.

Designed with you in mind; for long-term, carefree usage to give freedom, spontaneity, and confidence for a better life.

Make Showering Safe with a Shower and Commode Chair

Stay safe while showering with  portable commode chair

Bathroom accidents can happen both at home and when you’re traveling when you are not prepared with the right equipment. Elderly family members who aren’t able to remain steady in the shower can benefit greatly from a travel shower chair that they can use with them in the shower. This allows them to sit and rest rather than try to maintain their balance in a wet and slippery environment. Knowing the benefits of using a portable commode chair will ensure that your loved one remains safe at all times in the shower.

Have a Place to Sit

Both old age and injury can make it difficult to stand for extended periods of time, but a travel commode chair allows people to sit when they are feeling weak. This allows people to rest, no matter if they are in the bathroom in the morning or after a long day. Taking a portable chair such as the Wheelable on the road ensures that users can enjoy that same sense of security even when they aren’t in their own bathroom.

Protect against Falls

Not only does a travel shower chair make it possible to rest when someone is feeling tired and in the shower, but they also make it very easy for users to remain safe and avoid falls. Falls in the bathroom can be devastating and it is very common for people to break a bone. The Wheelable, however, provides a safe place to sit where users can be protected and limits the chances of users sustaining a devastating fall.

Enjoy Privacy

Finally, using a portable commode chair allows people to retain their privacy. Instead of needing to have another person in the bathroom with you at home or on vacation, these chairs allow people to take care of themselves independently. This not only boosts self-confidence, but will prevent people from feeling like a burden.

There’s no reason why you or your loved one can’t be safe while using the bathroom alone. Using a quality shower chair is the best way to decrease the possibility of dangerous falls and to prevent people from being injured. When you are ready to ensure that you are safe in the bathroom or give your family member back their privacy, it’s time to invest in a quality shower or commode chair that is portable and will work not only in your home, but also when you are traveling.

How Can People with disabilities Enjoy Freedom of Movement?

It is important that all people, even those who are Disables, are able to move about freely during the course of their day and for the entirety of their lives. This freedom of movement can be obtained when a person has a portable lightweight wheelchair that they are able to take with them on a day-to-day basis. With so many opportunities to buy a wheelchair that meets their needs, many people choose to purchase more than one type to make their lives easier.

However, people who are Disables should have access to the same travel experiences as everyone else. This involves using portable wheelchairs to get around as well as a travel shower chair that can be used in small bathrooms. Buying this equipment will open up a world of travel.
