App Profile: We Can't Wait

The “We Can’t Wait” app offers Crohn’s & colitis patients and others a simple and fast way to locate publicly accessible restrooms and helps identify sympathetic establishments.

Patients with Crohn’s disease or ulcerative colitis (collectively known as inflammatory bowel disease, or IBD) can have unexpected, urgent needs to find an open restroom at a moment’s notice.

This app also provides education and resources for those looking for IBD support and information, and information on the status of restroom access legislation in each state.

How do we collect our restrooms?
Unlike most toilet-finder apps, we have two primary methods for collecting restrooms:
• Businesses/establishments that have directly contributed restrooms to our app – they’re aware of and sympathetic to the needs
of IBD patients
• Crowdsourced restroom information (contributed by users)

By partnering with businesses and other locations with publicly available restrooms, we hope to help patients and others feel
welcomed when they urgently need a restroom away from home.

We hope you will use and enjoy this app. Please feel free to contribute any restrooms that you think are missing from our map!
