SPECIAL OFFER dovedale adjustable height and detachable arms commode

Product Details

The Dovedale Adjustable Height and Detachable Arms Commode is a versatile and practical bathroom aid designed for use in both home and care environments. It features a hinged plastic toilet seat similar to a standard WC, providing familiarity and ease of use for the user. One of its key features is the removable commode pan with a lid, which allows for hygienic and straightforward waste disposal.

Constructed with a solid design, the Dovedale Commode includes splayed legs that offer added stability, reducing the risk of tipping. For added comfort and durability, it has a vinyl lift seat and a fixed padded backrest, both in a dark brown colour. The commode is also suitable for autoclaving at 80°, ensuring it can be easily cleaned and maintained to high hygiene standards.

The commode's height is fully adjustable, allowing it to meet the individual needs of different users and ensuring maximum comfort. This feature makes it particularly suitable for various heights, enhancing user convenience. Additionally, the Dovedale Commode is frequently used in care homes due to its stackable design, allowing multiple units to be stored efficiently when not in use.

The detachable arms of the commode facilitate easy side transfers, making it an excellent choice for wheelchair users. These arms can be easily removed and refitted, providing safe and reliable support when sitting down and getting up, thereby significantly reducing the risk of slips and falls.
