Love, responsibility and stress…

We take care of our elderly family members out of love and responsibility. But taking care of the elder can be very stressful and everyone experiences difficulty doing it at some point. The population of older adults is growing and many are receiving inadequate care. The proportion that need assistance with their activities of daily living (ADLs) and impaired activities of daily living (IADLs) is increasing disproportionally.

Studies have shown that up to 1 in 4 elderly have impaired ADLs/IADL with persons over 65. That number rises to 40% of men and 53% of women over 85. These impaired individuals require caregivers, who are up to 28.5 percent of the U.S. adult population. Roughly 65.7 million people, were providing unpaid care to an adult relative in 2009. That number has grown since then.

Taking care of the elderly causes stress. Up to 66.6% of unpaid caregivers for older adults reported at least one adverse mental or behavioral health symptom related to their role. Caregivers are at times overwhelmed.

Ensure that when you take care of someone, you take care of yourself. This can be as straight forward as improving the care environment to taking a day for yourself. The care environment can be improved through better home lighting, bathroom rails and house ramps. This improves elder self reliance and health, decreasing the burden of care. Using home health devices like the EZ Bedpan for bathroom needs can make taking care of basic necessities easier.

Taking a step back and a day off is not selfish, but sometimes necessary to be able to take care of others.

08/08/2024 – Press Release

Introducing the EZ Bedpan, thoughtfully designed for the comfort of patients and the ease of caregivers.

Orange, CA. August 08/08/2024 - EZ Bedpans LLC, an innovator in home health and patient-centered care, is pleased to announce the launch of its EZ Bedpan.

This summer we are excited to provide our EZ Bedpan into the hands of home and facility caregivers. Developed over 3 years with the input of over 200 nurses, the EZ Bedpan addresses all care issues.

The EZ Bedpan features 30-degree sloped walls and four ergonomic handles for easy placement under a patient, reducing exertion and muscle strain for nursing staff. The innovative tilt-proof base, 360-degree splash guard, and removable inserts minimize spills and clean-up, allowing nursing staff to focus on patient care.

The EZ Bedpan is contoured for patient comfort and safety. It has a large surface area that reduces the risk of pressure injuries while simulating a toilet seat for a more familiar experience.

With the growing demand for home health products and enhanced patient care, the EZ Bedpan team is committed to improving care for everyone in need.

Comfortable Bedpan – for the patient and caregiver

The majority of bedpans on the market are not comfortable. The most common and cheapest bedpan used in hospitals is the fracture bedpan. It is a bedpan with the smallest surface area in contact with the patients skin. This can lead to serious injury. Needing to use a bedpan is not a familiar and comforting experience. Handling a bedpan, and human waste is not a comforting experience either. This discomfort adds to the difficulty of caring for patients requiring a bedpan.

Consider the patient's and your comfort when choosing a bedpan. While using a fracture bedpan is the cheapest option but it is uncomfortable to the patient and caregiver. Emptying and cleaning a fracture bedpan is a hassle. The same is true for the more comfortable pontoon bedpan. Which is difficult to place under a patient and has a tendency to tilt and spill. Cleaning up bedpan spills is unpleasant and a safety issue if the patient has an infectious disease.

For greatest patient and caregiver comfort, choose the EZ Bedpan. It offers a large surface area similar to a regular toilet, providing a familiar comfortable feeling. The EZ Bedpan is contoured for the patient's body and comfort. It can be used in the sitting, semi-sitting and laying positions.

The EZ Bedpan is also designed with the caregiver's comfort in mind. It provides 4 ergonomic handles for easy handling. The sloping walls make it easy and comfortable to place it under the patient. The removable top makes it easy to empty and clean if no insert is used. If an insert is used, the clean up consists of removing the insert and discarding it.

For the patient's and caregivers comfort, go easy, and choose the EZ Bedpan.

Elder Care

Welcome to our website

Elder Care and aging affects everyone.  Time cannot be stopped.  Here at EZ Bedpans we are trying to help patients have a more dignified aging process.  We also want to help caregivers help those who they care for. 

Being cared for can feel embarrassing and unnatural as we age.  Many do not want to become a burden or a bother.  Caregivers would prefer products that make their tasks easier.  EZ Bedpans is here to help with one of the most basic human functions, that of urination and defecation.  It is an embarrassing topic but critical to proper health.


We and our products are here to help make it easier. 

Thank you for visiting our website. 

Sincerely,

The nurses and doctors at EZ Bedpans
