Having someone stand there while you go to the bathroom Ugh! Giving up your restful bathroom time would be a tragedy.
-
Falling is awful, falling in the bathroom is even worse, falling while your pants are around your ankles is the worstest. Also, bathrooms are full of hard surfaces and tight spaces which can cause severe injuries in a fall.
-
Not being able to go to the bathroom when you want. If you need help, you have to wait for a person to help you. I don’t know about you, but sometimes my bowels wait for no one.
-
Requiring family to be with you continuously. This your relationships. This may prevent your children or spouse from leaving the house, going on trips, spending time with their friends and their children. It may even prevent family members from working and building their future.
-
Extra tall toilet seats are a terrible thing. Mainly because they cause constipation. Extra tall toilet seats reduce the amount your body squats. This restricts your ability to evacuate and causes constipation. Toilet lifts lower you down fully making it easier to poop.
-
Family stress makes everyone miserable. Toilet Lifts provide peace of mind when your family knows you are independent, happy, and safe.
-
Caregiver injuries make matters worse. Toilet lifts prevent caregiver injuries by eliminating difficult lifting situations. Lifting an adult human off of a toilet usually requires you to bend over and lift with your back. This can easily cause your spouse, family member, or hired caregiver an injury.
-
Home health care expenses add up fast, especially if you need toileting help, which is around-the-clock.
-
No one wants to move to assisted living. I have not met a single person that was looking forward to moving to an assisted living facility. Everyone wants to stay right where they are whether it be their home or in independent living. But if you and your occupational therapist cannot come up with a good toileting plan you will have to move. We can help. Toilet Lifts help you stay safe in your home.
-
Long term care expenses can drain your assets. Toilet lifts help delay that process. This one is a little tough to understand, but if someone cannot care for themselves and doesn’t have the cash to pay for an assisted living facility, they can seek help from Medicaid. Medicaid will eventually pay for a facility, but only after an “asset spend down”. This means that they will be forced to sell (not gift away) their home, and drain all of their accounts. The result is that any family wealth will quickly disappear into bills for that facility.

Gone is the enjoyment of a good fart. How can you enjoy a hearty toot while knowing that whomever is required to be in the bathroom with you has to endure it.
Thanks for reading my email. I’m pretty sure you never really thought much about toilet lifts so I wanted to get you up to speed.
