WashPod

Overview

The WashPod range offers 7 models of temporary, modular disabled wetroom that will help keep you at home if you’re disabled or elderly. Life can turn on a sixpence and old age comes to us all but the WashPod range has been designed by architects who specialise in disability and accessibility and merged with expertise in modularity. It is endorsed by occupational therapists and case managers. If you’re elderly or disabled, being able to live in your own home becomes a real issue if you no longer have access to washing and toilet facilities but this unique, new ‘pod’ that can be erected in as little as a day, can help keep you in your own home, rather than a prolonged hospital stay or an early move to an expensive care home. WashPods are either positioned externally in the garden or erected within an existing, reception or dining room that can be made available for the purpose. There’s even a mini WashPod model that can fit into smaller rooms while still providing wheelchair access and hoist options. Both internal and external options give a less able person dignity until more suitable arrangements can be made, without significant disruption and stress to the family home.
