The restroom described below is based on the Changing Places model developed and implemented in the United
Kingdom.
keeping this facility available for those who need it when they need it.

The minimum size needed for this type of 10 feet by 13 feet (ca. 3m x 4m). Such a facility must include:

- Adequate space for a disabled person when they are not in their wheelchair, plus their wheelchair, the ability to turn
their wheelchair, and one or two carers in the room to assist them.

- Peninsular (centrally placed) toilet with at least 3 feet of space on both sides for the wheelchair user. Large lever handle
rather than standard lever or push button flush.

-Wall-mounted vertical grab bars on each side of the toilet.

- Drop down support rails placed on both sides of the toilet to offer support when transferring and while seated.

- Free-standing adult sized, height adjustable changing bench.

- Ceiling track or a mobile hoist to assist the caregiver with safe transfer to the changing bench.

- Moveable privacy screen or curtain to go around the changing bench.

- Wall-mounted sink with space below the bowl to allow a wheelchair user to access it safely and comfortably. Lever taps
or motion sensor. Ideally this would be a height adjustable sink to accommodate various ages and sizes of people.
-Wall-mounted vertical grab bars on each side of the sink.

- Paper towel dispenser rather than hand dryer (the noise of the electric hand dryers is very upsetting to many people
with sensory issues, autism, etc.).

- Three trash cans (one for general waste, one for sanitary products, and one large one for incontinence materials).
- Non-slip floor.

- Toilet paper dispenser mounted within reach of the toilet at an appropriate height.

- Soap dispenser mounted on the wall by the sink at a height for wheelchair user.

- Full-length mirror to ensure clothing is adjusted properly before leaving the restroom.

- Coat hooks for hanging coats and bags so they are not on the floor.

- Optional shower (with detachable shower head) and shower seat
