Raised Toilet Seats
Raised toilet seats
If you have problematic knees, hips or are recovering from surgery or injury, raised toilet seats can help make using the restroom easier. Depending on your needs, choose between elevated toilet seats of different heights and materials. For example, some raised toilet seats feature padding and others are made completely of plastic. Brands such as Nova, Savanah and Drive Medical are here at Walgreens.com with a variety of high toilet seats to meet your needs.
Selecting a seat
You can be confident that it's safe to use a raised toilet seat, since many feature locking mechanisms to hold them in place. Others come with padded handles for comfort, extra assistance, and stability. Many elevated toilet seats fit most standard toilets, and others are elongated. Choose the type that's most comfortable and practical for you.
Bathroom safety
In addition to raised toilet seats, you can find a variety of options to keep you safe, comfortable and steady in the bathroom. Shower seats generally have rubber tips on the feet to prevent slipping, and you can sit on them while washing with a hand held shower head. There are also bath mats to use in or outside of the tub. Bathroom grab bars can help make getting in and out of the tub easier.
