Fall Prevention in the home has become an important topic to the elderly and senior community. Each year thousands of seniors experience falls at home, many resulting in serious and even life-threatening injuries. Taking the necessary precautions and outfitting your home with the right products is key to preventing falls and insuring yours and your loved ones’ safety.

ActiveForever, an online retailer of medical equipment, home healthcare products, and physical therapy devices, has responded to the demand of physical therapists, consumers, and other healthcare professionals by introducing a new Fall Prevention products category on their website. In this category, the product specialists at ActiveForever have included the best product choices for elderly fall prevention in every room of the house. The new department acts as a Fall Prevention Guide by helping consumers chose the right grab bars, shower chairs, raised toilet seats, and bed rails.

In addition to the new Fall Prevention Category, ActiveForever has published a Fall Prevention Guide that goes beyond product purchasing. It offers tips on how to prevent falls in the home by making simple changes around the house, such as removing clutter from walkways, rearranging furniture, and using non-skid mats in the bathroom.

Whether you or your loved one have had a knee replacement or a hip replacement, or just need some extra help getting on and off the toilet, choosing the correct raised toilet seat can be difficult. A wide range of designs and options are available, and since they are typically non-returnable and not covered by health insurance, the decision can be nerve-wracking.

We have researched and tested a wide range of toilet seats against our years of knowledge in this business, and we have found the RTS4002 Ergonomic Raised Toilet Seat with Arms to be the best choice for practically anyone.

While this model does require that you remove your existing toilet seat, the installation of the RTS 4002 Elevated Toilet Seat is much easier than others of its kind. Simply bolt the included bracket in place where your toilet seat was, then slide and lock the RTS 4002 in place. It’s very simple and requires little effort. By simply lifting the lever in the back you can remove the seat for easy cleaning. Unlike raised toilet seats that simply lock into place without any hardware, this seat provides you with superior stability and safety - you don’t have to be worried about the RTS4002 Raised Toilet Seat’s ability to support your weight when you lean on it!
