Ins and outs of bathing (view report contents)
Introduction
Bathrooms should be a place to relax and unwind in. The average British
bathroom can make this difficult - more so as we get older or have a disability
which makes movement difficult. This guide tells you how you can make
bathing easier.
New in 2007:
The Disabled Living Foundation have a website called Bathing
Made Easy which can help you find bathing products that make life
easier.
The site has a range of products to assist with bathing, taking a shower,
personal care, cleansing and equipment to assist with medication:
