Located on the picturesque Central Coast of NSW, BlueWave Living is a leader in delivering exceptional aged care services. Specialising in Residential Aged Care, dementia-specific support, wellness, and rehabilitation programs, the facility is dedicated to providing residents with the highest standards of comfort, dignity, and care. To further elevate its environment, BlueWave Living partnered with RBA to design and install a modern, accessible bathroom solution that enhances usability for all residents, without compromising on style.
Meeting the facility’s brief for contemporary aesthetics and accessibility, RBA supplied products from the Raffaello Designer Range. The use of Matte Black finishes on grab rails and washroom accessories introduced a cohesive and elegant visual appeal, aligning perfectly with BlueWave Living’s sophisticated interior standards. A standout feature is the RBA4601-068 Raffaello Shower T-Rail, paired with the RBA4111-700-002 Shower Head and RBA4110-999-014 Enda Slider. This integrated showering solution offers a reliable and user-friendly experience that supports residents’ needs while maintaining a sleek design.
For residents requiring additional support, key grab rail models, including the RBA4601-188, RBA4601-178, and RBA4600-028, have been strategically positioned around the room. Each is designed to support up to 150kg, ensuring peace of mind for both residents and caregivers by prioritising strength, durability, and safety.
To complete the installation, a curated selection of Bobrick and RBA washroom accessories was added. These include the Bobrick B27313 Stainless Steel Toilet Roll Holder, featuring a dual-roll mechanism that allows the second roll to be manually released, reducing the need for frequent maintenance. Other additions include the Bobrick B1658 1639 Accessible Channel Frame Mirror, Bobrick B2012 Automatic Soap & Sanitiser Dispenser, and the Bobrick B36903 and B35903 TrimLine Paper Towel Dispensers— in satin and Matte Black finishes. Complementing these are the RBA1631-322 Oken Double Toilet Roll Holder and the RBA8117-102 Framed Safety Glass Mirror, also in Matte Black.
At RBA, we believe that great design in aged care settings must strike the right balance between aesthetics, accessibility, and safety. Our collaboration with BlueWave Living is a testament to how thoughtful product selection and seamless design integration can enhance the daily lives of aged care residents—supporting independence, dignity, and wellbeing in every detail.
