Best Answer

In terms of the type of tile (granite or manufactured porcelain or ceramic tile), I doubt it matters either tile or granite - both are very hard. Either way, it's probably best to install some type of radiant heating system under the flooring; otherwise it will be cold. Radiant floor heating can help to maintain a more comfortable room temperature, as well as keeping the floor warmer.

If the patient will perform all maintenance on the floor as well, then tile is probably the better choice. Tile does not need to be sealed, although the grout will need regular maintenance and new sealer every few years. Granite, however, needs to be sealed over the entire surface to prevent stains.
