Abstract
A survey of Paraplegia News readers was conducted to examine several issues related to the use of bathroom fixtures by disabled people. Responses indicated a wide range of preferences or dislikes depending on the type of disabilities of readers. This survey led to the conclusion that bathroom fixtures are far from meeting the functional needs of a sizable portion of the population.
