toilet housing to the floor prevents inmate from fastening material
around fixture
Rounded
bubbler and pushbuttons
Modified changes to aid
against suicide attempts are designed, where possible, to eliminate
holes and angles that can be used to hang or drape material used in
a suicide.
Other optional
suicide equipment includes hemispherical showerheads, bubbler spouts
and pushbuttons. All of these items are machined from stainless to
have a severe radius to prevent use as a tie off. Also in suicide
prevention cells all of the piping is concealed in the mechanical
chase. This includes all of the valves and traps that in a normal
setting could be used as suicide devices.
Cell plumbing
fixture manufacturers work closely with the prison industry to design
cell products that reduce potential suicide attempts. They try to anticipate
possible means of suicide and design and manufacture products that address
the issues identified. For additional information go to: www.willoughby.ind.com
