The Throne project has been launched to ensure our patient bathrooms provide the best environment for patients with dementia and with visual impairments. With dementia on the rise our hospital is actively taking measures to ensure we are dementia friendly at every point in a patients journey

They’re are working with occupational therapists, nurses and doctors to ensure our toilets are as safe as possible. Some of the ideas: 

• Having contrasting colour handrails and toilet seats helps patients to see key areas of the bathroom. This minimises falls and injury when using the bathroom.
• Opting for bins without a foot peddle, to ensure patients do not need to balance on one leg to open the bin.
• Clear signage to the patient bathrooms, with images. This helps support orientation and independence.
• Reduce risk of falling whilst patients are washing and dressing in bathroom, by providing rails for support and equipment.
