Walk in showers can help limit falls in the bathroom
More than three million seniors are treated for falls in the bathroom each year, and steps are one of the top home hazards that contribute to falls. Stepping over into a shower or bathtub can be one of the biggest challenges that seniors must face in their daily lives.
Walk-in tubs are a safer option. Some people who can’t step into to a tub. May wish to bathe independently from a wheelchair, must seek a walk-in shower. Wheel chair accessible showers may have little or no “curb” at the bottom, making it possible to roll in or step in with little or no effort.
