Bathroom Safety Options for The Elderly and Handicapped

Bathing is a crucial and imperative process of life. Unfortunately many elderly and disabled folk simply cannot bathe without help. The bathroom is the most dangerous room in the house. The slippery floors and bottom of bathtubs are easy for someone to lose footing, fall on sharp corners and hard surfaces therefore causing bodily injury. Unfortunately, millions of people are either disabled or have reached an advanced elderly age and cannot bath independently. With the right bath safety aids in place, the most dangerous room in the house can become one of the safest. The following is a list of mobility products that will assure proper safety measures in a bathroom:

Suction Bath Accessories

Grab Bars - Grab bars are products commonly used in the bathroom for the elderly and disabled to guarantee stability. Grab bars are smooth, cylindrical bars that are mounted on the walls of the bathroom or shower to help disabled people move from a wheelchair to the toilet seat. They also assist people who walk but have difficulty rising from a seated position. Grab bars are also used inside showers for support and to assist movement. Grab bars come in many variations such as a fold-out option and with suction for easy removal.

Suction Bath Accessories

Bath/Shower Boards - Bath Boards have a wide sitting area to securely provide a sitting surface across the bath for a person taking a bath or shower across the bath. Brackets slide against the sides of the bathtub to secure the bath board snug against the sides. The brackets can be placed at any angle to accommodate the curvature of the tub. Drainage is never a problem because the Bath/Shower board is perforated to allow smooth water flow.

Bath/Shower Chairs - Bath and shower chairs can provide a means for independent bathing. Bath and shower chairs are designed for individuals who require seating support while bathing or showering. The general idea is that these medical products allow someone who is unsteady on their feet the ability to shower without help. In most cases shower chairs are designed for the elderly or someone who may have been temporarily injured. Most chairs will fit into any standard tub or shower and are available with or without padding. Most bath and shower chairs do not require drilling because they have suction cup like tips for increased stability.

Bath Tub Lifts - Bath Tub Lifts are easy to install, simple to get in and out the tub, and safe to use. Bath lifts have a universal design that fits every standard bathtub. Bath lifts for Jacuzzi tubs and deeper Garden style bathtubs are also available. Bath tub lifts require no intrusive drilling or expensive remodeling. The user is lowered and raised into the bathtub by using a rechargeable battery operated remote. Reclining and Non Reclining Models are available. Relax and enjoy a bath again!
