toileted

1. 1
   verb

   Simple past and past participle of toilet.

   Staff toileted the residents on a regular schedule throughout the day.

   By the end of rehabilitation, he had toileted and dressed himself without any help.

   Note

   A regular past form, so have builds the perfect: she had toileted. The object usually shows which verb you are reading. With a person as object (staff toileted the residents, the child was toileted), it is the caregiving verb, and only that verb takes a passive. Without an object it means using a toilet oneself or, in a dated register, dressing and grooming. The same spelling is also the "having a toilet" adjective.

2. 2
   adjectiverare

   Equipped with a toilet.

   The newly toileted units each include a small private bathroom.

   All toileted buildings must meet applicable accessibility standards.

   Note

   A rare adjective built like bearded or walled: toilet plus -ed, describing a place that has one. It nearly always comes before a noun such as homes, houses or buildings, and it often takes an adverb: a majestically toileted home, excessively toileted houses. That pairing tends to cast a wry eye on comfort and wealth. In planning language it turns plain and literal: toileted buildings must meet accessibility standards.
