What type of toileting equipment is used for clients who cannot assist with raising their hips onto a regular bedpan?

The fracture pan is specifically designed for individuals who have limited mobility or who cannot assist with raising their hips onto a standard bedpan. It has a lower profile and a shape that makes it easier for clients to use while lying down or in a seated position. The design allows for easier placement under the client, enabling them to use it without needing to lift their hips significantly, which is often challenging for those with certain medical conditions, injuries, or disabilities.

In contrast, a standard bedpan requires the client to lift their hips more than what may be feasible for those with severe mobility impairments. A commode chair is an option for those who can sit up but may not be appropriate for someone who is bedridden. The urinal bottle is suitable for male clients who can sit up but does not provide the same comprehensive toileting solution for individuals who are unable to assist themselves in transferring onto a bedpan or moving to a commode. Thus, the fracture pan is the most appropriate choice for clients requiring assistance with toileting due to their specific mobility limitations.
