5 Essential Mobility Items to Make Life Easier
1. Commodes
A commode is a portable toilet that can be used in the bedroom or bathroom. It has a seat, backrest, and armrests, and may also have a bucket or pan to collect waste. Commodes are especially useful for individuals who have difficulty reaching a traditional toilet or who need to use the bathroom frequently at night. They can also be used in situations where there are no toilets available, such as camping or road trips.
