Grant Description

Purpose and goal:

We want to carry out extensive product development of our height-adjustable hygiene toilet. In consultation with Etac, a leading European hygiene chair manufacturer, we have come up with a solution that makes our products compatible. The solution is a cistern that is lower than our current one, which allows the chair to be driven in all the way to the wall as the handles do not bump. This will ultimately mean that care providers do not have to exclude one of these necessary functions.

Expected results and effects: Through this product improvement, we expect positive effects and results regarding: 1. Improving the quality of life for the individual 2. Reduced mental and physical workload for healthcare staff 3. A more person-centred care and care 4. More efficient use of resources in the operations

It also makes it possible to build smarter care bathrooms that are better adapted to meet future challenges in the sector and that strengthen the ability to offer quality care. Approach and implementation: Develop a prototype together with our partner Ensure quality and ease of use Test the prototype with actual users and in connection with the tilting hygiene chair

Based on information from above, make necessary changes Finally certify the product and make it ready for wider implementation
