An adapted bathroom is designed for people with disabilities or the elderly who want to live independently for longer. Compare specialists in adapted bathrooms and receive quotes.
An adapted bathroom is specially designed for people who have difficulty with the standard bathroom. Consider a barrier-free walk-in shower, grab rails and handles, a raised toilet and a wheelchair accessible washbasin.
The adjustments can vary from minor interventions (installing brackets) to a complete redesign of the bathroom. The goal is always to enable safe and independent use.
Adapted bathroom (per bathroom)
You can apply for reimbursement from your municipality for necessary home adjustments via the Social Support Act (Wmo). This also applies to adapting the bathroom.
The municipality assesses whether the adjustment is medically necessary. If approved, the adjustment will be fully or partially reimbursed. Consult your municipality's Wmo desk for the exact conditions.
