The most commonly used method of defining levels of obesity is the body mass index (BMI). Moreover, the BMI defines your body mass in kilograms divided by the square of your height in metres. A BMI over 30 indicates obesity. Morbidly obese patients have a BMI greater than 40. The world health organisation (WHO) lists the extent of the obesity epidemic as one of the world’s most significant health problems. Therefore, ambulant people with Bariatric conditions require special consideration in relation to bathroom and toilet safety. For that reason, we are cognisant of these requirements and we have developed the T46 Bariatric toilet drop down grab rail to assist people in their daily needs. An Australian design & manufactured in Victoria.
