| | The FRR Project - Creating an Assistive Toilet (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23) |
 | | FRR ("Friendly Rest Room") is an EU project within the Quality of Life programme, which aims at making toilet facilities better suited for older people and people with disabilities. |
 | | Many elements of the FRR (seat, grab bars, etc.) will be individually adjustable to meet the needs of persons with different functional limitations or disabilities, allowing them to gain greater autonomy, independence, self-esteem, dignity, safety, improved self-care and, therefore, enable them to enjoy a better quality of life. |
 | | However, it is planned that the prompting mechanism of the Viennese FRR prototype will be improved and demonstrated to carers of persons with dementia and experts in dementia research. |
