Colored toilet seats for dementia.

A range of coloured plastic or wooden toilet seats from bemis ideally suited to dementia patients. This applies to doors as well. The red toilet seat is especially effective in providing orientation for those with dementia. Toilet seats should be bright red to distinguish them from their surroundings.

Red was chosen as there is evidence to suggest that the red part of the colour spectrum is most easily perceived by people with alzheimers type dementia. Painting the bathroom door a specific contrasting color can help differentiate it from other rooms and provide a small sense of autonomy for the patient. A recurrent concept in dementia care is contrast between walls floors furniture and fixtures. These coloured toilet seats are made from easy clean plastic and feature a vibrant red colour.
