Step stools for clinic and hospital washrooms
In a clinic, hand washing is part of the visit. A foot operated retractable step under one sink lets children aged 2 to 8 reach the faucet on their own, and folds back after use.
What we hear from healthcare
Hand washing comes first
Children should be able to wash without a parent lifting them over the basin.
Disinfected many times a day
Surfaces are cleaned with strong products. Loose equipment is in the way.
Waiting rooms full of families
Pediatric clinics and emergency rooms see children all day.
Where to install it
- Washrooms near pediatric waiting rooms
- Family washrooms in the emergency department
- Washrooms at the main entrance and cafeteria
- One sink per row, to start

Step Stool for Healthcare & Clinical Facilities
Healthcare and clinical facilities must meet strict hygiene, safety and maintenance standards while accommodating patients of different ages and physical abilities.
Providing safe access to sinks for children requires equipment that supports hygiene protocols, minimizes contamination risks and integrates seamlessly into medical environments.
A step stool used in healthcare settings must be stable, easy to clean and suitable for frequent use in shared clinical spaces.
Accessibility and hygiene challenges in healthcare environments
Healthcare and clinical facilities face specific constraints:
Strict infection control and hygiene protocols
Frequent cleaning and disinfection requirements
Shared washrooms used by patients, families and staff
Children needing access to sinks without compromising safety
Equipment that must remain stable and easy to maintain
Loose or movable step stools often fail to meet these requirements in medical settings.
