Probably the most important aspect of a wetroom
in a Residential Care Home environment is that - genuine
level access shower rooms make life far easier for Care
Staff and Residents. Whilst the majority of your existing
residents may prefer baths, the modern preference of using a shower
is certain to continue permeating through our aging population
in the years to come. Meanwhile, a bath can still be incorporated
into a wetroom design,if required.
A Raindance System
means that shower trays are no longer needed, consequently the
showering area has easy, unrestricted access. Depending upon the
exact room size, we can advise how best to conform with the Disability
Discrimination Act (DDA) and Building Regulations Part M (Access
to and use of buildings).
By choosing tile styles to suit your exact requirements you will
avoid the otherwise clinical look achieved with so many “special
needs” type of installations. Obviously we can, and frequently
do, install products specifically to suit Care Home needs –
such as the siting of radiators higher on the wall than normal
to avoid residents falling against and possibly harming themselves
through to Electrically operated rise and fall wash basins to
suit the varying needs of individual residents. Grab rails and
emergency pull cords would be included as standard.
The end results always reflect a bathroom that your residents
and care staff would more likely wish to have installed in their
own homes.
By their very nature, we offer only FULL INSTALLATION packages
in this sector. A typical installation period for a two man Raindance
team would be 3 – 4 weeks.
