The Invisia Collection by Healthcraft incorporates functionality with aesthetic design. The collection features bathroom safety equipment that will please most user needs and wants. The collection combines practicality with functionality and beautifies bathroom safety equipment for the objective of being more visually appealing. The collection features grab bars that double as a soap dish, corner shelf, and a toilet paper holder. The collection also offers a beautiful hinged shower seat.

Grab bars are one of the most commonly installed in bathrooms for safety purposes. The traditional grab bar is a straight metal bar that screw in to a surface in two different places and protrudes about three inches away from the wall. The diameter of a grab bar is about and inch and a half. They may be positioned horizontally, vertically, and diagonally depending on user needs and wall stud location. Grab bars are used for stability, balance, and leverage.

The Invisia Collection takes ordinary bathroom appliances and integrates it with grab bar design. The collection redefines the appearance of the traditional grab bar. The grab bars are constructed and designed to have a 350 pound weight capacity. The wall mountings are discrete and concealed in multiple points of contact. The soap dish, corner shelf and toilet roll holder all have a DuPont Corian surface which is shatter proof and also resist mold and bacteria growth.

The Invisia Collection towel bars are available in either 16" or 24" long. This piece can be used for support while getting out of the shower and drying off. Ideally this piece is installed in near proximity of the shower in order to prevent water from getting on the floor. The convenience of it being a towel bar as well lowers the risk of user injury while getting out of the shower, reaching for a towel, and drying off.

The Invisia Collection Serena Seat is a beautiful fold down shower chair made out of Brazilian Walnut. Brazilian Walnut is three times stronger than teak and resistant to mildew, moisture, and decay. The frame is made out of aluminum so it will not rust in the shower. The pieces' slim profile is designed to be stylish and space-saving. Its mounting system disperses weight so that the chair feels solid when sitting. A specially designed tension hinge makes an easier time for folding the seat down and up out of the way, but also prevents the seat from inadvertently falling down.

Bath safety products don't have to have the typical clinical appearance. With the Invisia Collection by Healthcraft, you can ensure the safety of bathroom use without sacrificing your bathroom's decorative design.

One of the biggest challenges caregivers can face is finding the right medical equipment for their patients. For caregivers, ensuring the safety of their patients is top priority, and finding the right combination of products to outfit every room in the house for safety, independence and mobility can be both difficult and time-consuming.

With this in mind, the creators of the Caregiver Resources Catalog have put together a unique resource that consists of the best choices and top brands of durable medical equipment for caregivers. The 24 page catalog is filled with products ranging from mobility aids such as wheelchairs, ramps, bedrails, grab bars and walkers to daily living aids such as blood pressure monitors, sock aids, personal care equipment and automatic pill dispensers. The Caregiver Resources Catalog is the ideal resource for assisted living facilities, in-home care, and enabling anyone with needs to live independently, and is divided into sections to make finding the necessary products even easier.

Bathroom Safety

For seniors or anyone with limited mobility, the bathroom is the most dangerous room in the house. Wet, slippery floors and sharp corners can cause serious injury and even death. The Caregiver Resources Catalog offers a great selection of bath safety products including transfer benches, bath lifts, grab bars, raised toilet seats, and hygiene aids to make bathing and using the restroom safer and easier.

Fitness/Physical Therapy

Increasing strength and flexibility is important for those who wish to retain or regain their mobility. Strength training, massage and circulation therapy, and cardiovascular exercise, including aquatic workouts, can all be done safely and effectively using the selection of Fitness and Physical Therapy products found in the Caregiver Resources Catalog.

Fall prevention is a serious concern for any person with a disability. I am a T12-L1 incomplete spinal cord injury and I worry about falling every day of my life. Luckily, there are many wonderful items that help me from falling and potentially getting seriously hurt. Even something as simple as a no-slip bath mat can come in very handy for those worried about falling in the bathroom or shower.

Grab bars are my best friend when it comes to the bathroom.  There are many varieties of bars to choose from as well.  They have different colors, styles, and sizes. My personal favorite is a stylish chrome finish grab bar.  It looks very classy mounted to the wall and it also does the job extremely well.  Grab bars are unique in that some of them are portable, holding onto the wall with powerful suction cups, while others are mounted directly to the wall with a few bolts or screws. Most standard grab bars have a weight capacity of 250 pounds and there are even ones that can have a 500 pound weight capacity.

Another item I rely on in the bathroom is a toilet safety frame. These are arm rests that mount around my toilet and give me support when transferring from my wheelchair.  My current one has a weight capacity of 300 pounds and is quite stylish. The reason I like this item so much is because it allows me to have a standard toilet in my house that is safe for me to use without making the bathroom look and feel like a hospital room. The safety frame installs on any standard toilet.  The height can be adjusted making it accessible to almost anyone.

My grandmother worries about fall prevention as much, if not more than me.  She had a security pole and curve grab bar installed in her home.  This is a pole that attaches from the floor to the ceiling with a curve attachment on it that rotates 350 degrees. This gives her something horizontal to grab onto and it makes standing up and transferring a breeze. She loves it because it helps her stay independent without spending too much.

My other grandmother also takes fall prevention very seriously.  She swears by non-slip socks, the kind with the little rubber pads on the bottom of them to keep you from sliding and falling. These are an extremely simple and very cost effective item to keep her from injuring herself. She also has a bed side rail which prevents her from rolling out of the bed at night and makes it much easier for her to get up and out of the bed without assistance. Fall prevention is a serious concern for the elderly and many physically disabled people.
