Designing a Commode

To look at the commode on first glance, its seems a relatively simple design, and too many extents and purposes it is. But when one bears in mind, the extreme functionality of the commode has to have: it has to be hygienic - easy to clean, the components must be strong and durable, ideally materials should be used that don't rust easily, components must be adjustable to suit the user and so on. The problem with many commodes is that many commodes are made up of several parts, with tough to remove joints, and this makes them harder to take apart for dismantling or cleaning.

However, the design council has addressed this problem with some of their latest designs of commodes:



The fact that there are fewer touch points between the patient and the commode is a particular attractive feature that reduces cross infection of nasty germs and bacteria. Its good to see that there's always scope for improving existing modern designs of commodes in line with functionality and health and safety aspects as well.

Happy New Year Year To All readers

Thanks very much for your blog comments, and all hope you had a wonderful Christmas. Now the turkey has well and truly been stuffed, and our waistlines have expanded, and we begin to think about how we're best going to implement our new year's resolutions, I thought for 2010 we'd start by looking at some of my resolutions for blogging generally:

1.I will try and provide more useful content for the readers, but you guys have got to help me out a little as well, and send me stuff you want to read about so I can get an idea if Im on the right track.
2. I will not be blogging as frequently due to starting at a new company and ha ving to work insane hours, thus my blogging alloted slots are somewhat limited. This shall mean few more infrequent posts, but hopefully ones of good quality rather than ones of rubbish quality.
3. Finally, I'm all for SEO and getting higher ranking in the search engines. This used to be my last job, so I know a bit about it. However, frankly time is a big factor, and I just dont have any of it these days even this early on. So if you want to help me out by linking to useful content on my post please do, and slip in a relevant keyword or two I'd be very grateful. Email me if you choose to do this, and Ill do something in return for you.

So here's to a great year ahead, and hope it's all you wish for and more!
