A toilet-bed hybrid, this Dignity bed makes going to the bathroom much easier for those injured or hurt in a hospital.
Designed by Enda Thomas, the Dignity Bed is controlled by a handset and is antibacterial protected, ensuring that it's safe to be used. According to Yanko Design, the Dignity Bed is equipped with "a built-in dry toilet facility where waste is contained in an electronically sealed waste bag."
