Project Overview:
Sima Care began by conducting a thorough assessment of the existing bathroom to determine the most suitable solution for the clients. Given the specific requirements, the team proposed the installation of an ultra-low shower tray to facilitate easy entry and exit for residents with mobility challenges. However, a significant obstacle was encountered as the existing drainage system was higher than the tray, making it impossible to achieve seamless water flow.
Solution:
To overcome this challenge, Sima Care devised an innovative solution by fitting a pump system within the bathroom. The pump was designed to efficiently move waste water from the shower tray to the higher drainage point, allowing for minimal trip hazards and ensuring the tray remained at an ultra-low height. This solution not only resolved the technical issue but also contributed to maintaining the bathroom’s accessibility and safety standards.
Implementation:
Sima Care’s team of experienced technicians executed the installation meticulously, adhering to strict quality standards. They skillfully integrated the pump system into the bathroom’s design, ensuring a seamless and aesthetically pleasing appearance. Sima Care’s commitment to attention to detail and expertise in accessible bathroom solutions was evident throughout the installation process.
Outcome and Benefits:
The completion of the project resulted in a fully accessible bathroom that met the unique needs of the retirement home’s residents. By incorporating the ultra-low shower tray and pump system, Sima Care successfully eliminated trip hazards and enhanced the overall safety of the bathroom. The residents could now enjoy a comfortable and worry-free shower experience, enabling them to maintain their independence and dignity.

Sima Care’s successful installation of an accessible bathroom at Knutsford Retirement Home showcases their commitment to providing tailored solutions for clients with diverse needs. By leveraging their expertise and innovative problem-solving skills, Sima Care ensured the seamless integration of an ultra-low shower tray and pump system, resulting in an inclusive and safe bathroom environment.
