For people with disabilities small changes in fixtures such as kitchen faucets can make the world of difference in independence and accessibility.
So what do you look for when looking for a faucet to overcome a physical disability and to increase accessibility?
Easy access handles-usually something with a long stem or paddle style handle.
- Postural/balance issues, the longer handle reduces the need for the person to lean forward, keeping the center of gravity near the center of the body reduces the chances of the person losing their balance and falling.
- Reduced range of motion or reach issues.
- Fine motor issues.
- Athetoid movements, ataxia any sort of motor issues. Larger handles compensate for difficulties with accurate movements allowing ease of use.
One handle faucets.
