Bathroom Tools

Practical special pieces of equipment to help with daily bathroom routines.

These clever items often have inventive designs to overcome common problems.

Someone with limited mobility may have difficulty gripping or controlling standard bathroom equipment.

Specially adapted tools may benefit them.

This common issue often leads to pain or discomfort and makes certain regular bathroom routines awkward.

Simply holding a narrow plastic toothbrush is enough to cause pain for some people.

It is possible to wrap them with tape or special grips sometimes used for cutlery, to increase the size of the toothbrush’s handle.

Gripping a wider handle is usually less painful, so this simple adaptation may make all the difference.

Long-handled toenail scissors are indeed available and are a great tool for people who find it hard reaching the tips of their toes.

People with difficulty arthritis of the fingers or hands, or who have diminished strength in this area, may have squeezing toothpaste.

Luckily there is a clever device to help with this precise problem.

It clamps over the tube and is easy to push up its length, forcing the toothpaste out with minimum strain for the user.
