Article Abstract:
Elderly patient care in the UK could be vastly improved if the National Health Service would be prepared to invest in modern and more comfortable commodes for patients. Ensuring elderly people have access to suitable toilet facilities enables a sense of independence and leads to a better quality of life. Many wards are coping with inappropriate, out-dated equipment which fails to provide the elderly with the care they deserve.
