  • Part 3: Toilet Design Considerations: Micro Level
    PLANNING FOR PUBLIC TOILETS PART 3: MICRO LEVEL: TOILET DESIGN CONSIDERATIONS: Inclusive Design for Different Types of User Groups ' To a good doctor there is no physical or mental aspect of his patient which should embarrass him. He may be worried or shocked by what his diagnosis reveals, but if he's any good, he is not embarrassed. Correspondingly, therefore, there should be no type of building, and no human function related to it which should embarrass the architect!' (Architects Journal, 1953, No.117). This section looks at the 'micro' level of detailed toilet design. However, the emphasis is upon principles, and upon 'seeing' how the different components of the toilet cubicle 'work' together, because, as they say, 'the devil is in the detail'. The emphasis is again upon the user, the range of user types, and the social and qualitative factors involved, rather than upon the technical plumbing and engineering aspects dealt with elsewhere in this course programme. There is also a longer optional explanation of the issues in the second part of the paper. A PowerPoint accompanies and illustrates Part 3. Part 3 is longer because detailed issues are so important. A fuller bibliography, list of references is given at the end. In fact Part 3 may be used as a module in its own right on inclusive design. People are Important There are many detailed design guides on the precise dimensions and locations of rails, toilet pans, washbasins, mirrors etc and so it is not the purpose of this chapter to give precise guidance on these. 'The problem' is that some toilet manuals deal with each component without seeing how they inter-relate with each other spatially.

  • Bathing Without Conflicts
    Bathing Without Conflicts Bathing can be a traumatic experience for some aging adults, particularly if they suffer from some form of dementia. It’s important to remain patient and calm in the face of challenging behaviors that surface during bathing, and to realize that a number of factors may be contributing to the senior’s distress: increased sensitivity to the temperature or pressure of the water, feelings of lost independence and dignity, or a lapse in memory preventing the person from understanding the purpose of the bathing process. There are a number of ways to make bathing more comfortable for both the person being bathed and the caregiver. First and foremost, make sure the bathing area is safe: • Use grab bars and slip-resistant mats. • Make sure the water temperature is neither too hot nor too cold (recommended bath water temperature is a degree or two higher than normal body temperature). • Keep sharp, dangerous, and breakable items out of reach. • Always supervise a person with dementia in the bathroom. • Place towels, soap and other needed materials close at hand. Try the following tips to improve bathtime experiences: • Allow the elderly person to have a sense of control in the process. Offer choices, and allow him or her to assist in some way, such as holding the washcloth or a bottle of shampoo. • Keep bathing time on a set schedule, at the same time each day. • Clean the elderly person’s skin gently. • Break down instructions for each step in the bathing process; i.e., “Place your feet into the tub.

The SLH uses innovative participatory approaches to engage with both practitioners, policy-makers and the communities they wish to serve. We believe that achieving safely managed sanitation and hygiene for all by 2030 requires timely, relevant and actionable learning.

  • Bladder Diary Vesia Bladder Diary
    Bladder Diary Vesia Bladder Diary Instructions for Completing the Diary 1. Please record three typical days. It is helpful to record both workdays and days off. 2. Record the times you drink any fluid and the times you urinate (pee). It is preferred that you measure and record in milliliters (mls); however, if this is impossible just estimate as Small (S), Moderate (M) or Large (L). 3. Some people get sudden strong urges to urinate that are difficult to control. Record how strong the urge was when you went to the toilet as follows: Bladder Sensation Scale No sensation of needing to pass urine, but passed urine for “social reasons” (eg. just before going out, not 1 sure where next toilet is); no urgency. 2 Normal desire to pass urine; no urgency. 3 Urgency but urgency passed away before had to visit bathroom; went later with normal desire to pass urine. 4 Urgency but managed to get to bathroom and did not leak urine. 5 Urgency but could not get to bathroom in time so leaked urine. 4. If you had a leakage episode (accident), record the time and how much leaked out: • Small (S): few drops only • Moderate (M): wet underwear or pad • Large (L): soaked underwear or pad, or full loss of bladder volume 5. If you have to wear protective pads or garments, record the times you have to change it and the weight of pad you use: Light (pantyliner or light incontinence pad), Medium, Heavy incontinence pad, or adult Diaper. © 2011 Vesia [Alberta Bladder Centre] Inc.
