Total Hip Replacement Tall-ette Elevated Toilet Seat - Bolt-Down LOK-IN-EL bracket for Elongated Toilets
Note: Review only, product no longer for sale.
This elevated seat is specially designed to meet the needs of those who have had hip replacement
This elevated seat is specially designed to meet the needs of those who have undergone unilateral or bilateral total hip replacement. When the patient is seated on it, the legs are kept abducted in the proper position. The "saddle" type seat also prevents internal rotation as well as adduction at the hip. This can help reduce the effects of spasticity occuring in persons with cerebral palsy or other conditions affecting muscle tone. Adds 4" to the seating level. Weighs 3.3 lb. (1.5 kg). Designed in conjunction with the OT/PT Rehabilitation Departments at the Hospital for Special Surgery in New York, NY.

PLAY Tip
Bead Mazes perfect for children with Down Syndrome or Visual Impairments
Learning only happens when a child is interested enough to WANT to participate. Bead mazes teach a huge variety of skills. (cognitive, motor, perceptual, and language) but their true strength is the excellent play value kids find in these open-ended toys. This style is best for children with mild to moderate fine motor delays, and is especially suitable for low vision and blind children.
