    Toilet Question...TOTALLY OFF TOPIC !

    I worked in a hospital in San Bernardino awhile back and saw the strangest thing in one of the rooms. It was a sink that was dropped in a vanity. Here's the odd thing. When you open the vanity door, a toilet swivels out and locks in place. It's a hide-under-the-sink-in-the-vanity toilet!
    I can't seem to find it ANYWHERE online. Has anyone ever seen one? Chance of sending me a link if you find one online?
    Thanks

    Re: Toilet Question...TOTALLY OFF TOPIC !

    We have the same set-up in a few of the individual rooms in our ICU(s) [ICU-E & ICU-W] at Madigan Army Medical Center. However, seldom do the patients use them since by then they are good to GO for transfer out of ICU. These pull-out toilets are nice as a hopper to empty out urinals, etc.

    I have no idea regards to online info.

    BTW, Duncan why did you post in your title "Totally Off Topic"? How can you be off topic when you
    started the thread? Besides, your thread is very reasonable... we nurses just have unusual conversations, sometimes.

    I've seen them at Moffitt Cancer Center in Tampa. It's been a while, but I seem to remember them in one of the ICUs there.
