The invention also includes a powered lifting mechanism to aid the individual in utilizing a toilet. The powered lifting mechanism includes a pair of lift arm assemblies which are driven by a motor at both sides to raise and lower the assistive platform and be tilted between a first stationery position and a second tilted position, tilted at an angle (a) in a vertical Z direction from a horizontal plane. The front and back supporting legs are used to provide sturdy structural support for a person's weight whiling sitting on the assistive apparatus atop of a toilet.

An assistive apparatus with a buttock-spreading mechanism suitable for assisting a person in getting onto a toilet is disclosed. The person using the toilet together with the assistive apparatus is able to transfer the bodyweight of the person to be supported by the assistive apparatus, thereby avoiding the transfer or distribution of the person's heavy weight directly to the toilet itself.

A shower seat assembly comprising a first mounting bracket with a front side and a back side, a second mounting bracket with a front side and a back side, a first support rod hingedly connected to the first mounting bracket, a first tube stop secured to the first mounting bracket, a second support rod hingedly connected to the second mounting bracket, a second tube stop secured to the second mounting bracket, a first spring operationally associated with the first mounting bracket and the first support rod, a second spring operationally associated with the second mounting bracket and the second support rod, and a seat with an upper surface and a lower surface secured by its lower surface to the first support rod and the second support rod; wherein the back side of the first mounting bracket and second mounting bracket are each engaged to a vertical or near vertical surface.

The collapsible and height adjustable shower chair device disclosed herein may allow a user to seat and support a child while in the shower for washing. The device may collapse down into a form factor suitable for storing away, while also providing a height adjustment so that a child is placed at an appropriate height for where a second user may attend to the child. The feet of the device may provide traction and stability to the collapsible and height adjustable shower chair device so that it does not slide on a wet surface and so that it does not tilt forward due to the child shifting their weight. The device may further comprise safety features such as, for example, side bolsters or a seat belt to prevent a child from falling out of the device.

A bathroom module is disclosed. The bathroom module comprises a shower area, a toilet area, a grooming area, and plumbing inlet lines. The shower area comprises a shower head, a control valve assembly, and a drain. The toilet area comprises a toilet assembly. The toilet area and the shower area are separated from each other by a first wall. The grooming area comprises a sink assembly that comprises a faucet. The grooming area is separated from the shower area and the toilet area by a second wall. The second wall is substantially perpendicular to the first wall. Plumbing inlet lines are disposed within the first wall and the second wall and configured to supply water to the control valve assembly, the shower head, the toilet assembly, and the faucet.
