Commodes

There are several types of commodes, including bedside commodes, folding commodes, bariatric (heavy-duty) commodes, shower commodes, and wheeled commodes for easy transport.

When selecting a commode, consider factors such as the user's weight, mobility level, space availability, the need for portability, and whether it will be used over a toilet or in a different space.

Some commodes are designed as combination shower chairs and can be used in the shower. These are typically made with water-resistant materials and have features for safe use in wet environments.

Regular cleaning is important for hygiene. Clean the commode after each use with disinfectant cleaners, and ensure the collection bucket is emptied, washed, and disinfected regularly.

Many commodes have height-adjustable features for different users and usage scenarios, such as fitting over an existing toilet.

To request a commode, you'll typically need to undergo an assessment by a healthcare professional, such as a GP, nurse, or occupational therapist, who can then refer you to the appropriate NHS service or local council for provision.

Hospital commodes benefit patients recovering from surgery, individuals with limited mobility, the elderly, and anyone who finds it challenging to use a standard bathroom due to health issues.

Consider the commode's weight capacity, height adjustability, portability, ease of cleaning, and whether it has features like padded seats or armrests for additional comfort.

Portable commodes are designed to be more lightweight and often come with features like foldability or wheels, making them easier to move and store than standard, more stationary commodes.

Folding commodes are ideal for those who need a temporary toileting solution, have limited space, or require a commode that can be easily packed away and transported.
