More Details

Adjusts to size
The Rifton HTS adapts to a childs size with adjustable features. It grows with the child. The HTS has the capacity to accommodate children of every size, body type and special need.

Modes of Use
Toilet Mounting
Stripped to its basics it becomes a cushioned toilet seat that mounts on a regular toilet, but with the addition of arm supports and a seatbelt. This is for a child with minimal involvement. The arm supports and seatbelt provide boundaries. A back rest, tray, and deflector may be added if necessary.

Over the Toilet Mounting
It can be used over a toilet when mounted on either a mobile or stationary frame. The seat height adjustment allows for sufficient clearance of all round-front toilets. Additional supports can be added for improved positioning and the backrest can be tilted forward or backwards for comfort.

Standing Commode
By slipping a pan underneath the seat, the adaptive toileting chair becomes a free-standing commode. In this configuration, the tilt-in-space feature can be used to its full 30-degree range anterior to posterior.

Easy Transfer from Toilet to Shower
The posterior tilt option of the chair and the simple and easy-to-clean design gives the HTS the dual function of a shower chair. The seat and back can also be transferred onto a tub base for bathtub use.

Sit-to-Stand
The 15 degrees of anterior tilt provides great positioning for facilitating a sit-to-stand transfer. Additionally, using the anterior tilt and an open seat pad makes hygiene care much easier

Considerations

It is advisable to involve an occupational therapist in the prescription and ordering of a toileting system before purchasing.
