For Room One (level-access shower) we can provide a Sherwood "perching" stool or this shower chair with removable arms. If you prefer, a plastic garden chair is also available. Grab rails and transfer rails in place. The toilet is 16" (41cm) high and a toilet seat raiser is also available. The wash basin is 27" high with limited knee space under and it has lever taps. This en-suite will accommodate a mobile hoist (see below.)
Sink with lever-taps and grab-rail, Room One
The wardrobe in this bedroom has the option of a lower hanging rail for easy wheelchair access. One (or both) bedroom chairs can be removed to increase floor space. The desk height is 27" (69cm) high and provides easy wheelchair access. The standard size double bed is 24" (61cm) high and can be raised to 30" (76cm) high by using our purpose-made bed-blocks. This is particularly important if a mobile hoist is necessary. We are happy to hire this from a local medical-care facility, at a reasonable charge, please ask for more information. The hoist can be used for toilet transfer as well as bed transfer. You would need to provide your own "toileting sling" for hygiene reasons. Please visit Room One page to see further general photographs of Room One.
Because we have three accessible rooms, it is crucial to reserve any mobility aids you might wish to use.
Please do this WHEN YOU BOOK your accommodation, thank you.
Aids include: wheelchair, shower chair; toilet seat raiser; bed-blocks; mobile hoist; bed back-rest.
