Facilities to give dignity
16 October 2014
Would you like to be lying on the floor, in full view of other users, if you needed the toilet when away from home? For some ¼ million children and adults, this is often the reality, because venues are not properly accessible or inclusive.

A correctly-designed and specified Changing Place toilet overcomes those issues, making a location accessible to anyone who needs a carer when going to the toilet, giving them back their dignity and improving hygiene. With more space than a conventional wheelchair-accessible WC (12m2), a Changing Places toilet further includes, at least, a peninsular toilet, hoist, adult-sized height adjustable changing bench, washbasin and privacy screen. As a result, the user can toilet, and be clean, in an appropriate, hygienic environment.
Clos-o-Mat (Total Hygiene) is the only British company with the ability to, in-house, provide design advice, supply, installation, project management, commissioning and ongoing service and maintenance of the equipment. To help all involved in the decision process, it has produced a white paper ‘Considerations & Specification of Changing Places Toilets’. The white paper, plus support data such as specifications, 2D and 3D CAD drawings, animations, FAQs, and an expert’s blog are all available on the company’s website www.clos-o-mat.com.
