Improve the Safety of Your Bathroom

Your bathroom is one of the most accident prone rooms in your home. Think about it. Close quarters and water do not make for a safe environment. For a senior or someone with mobility challenges, the stakes are even higher. If they have one too many slip-and-fall accidents, it can deter them from living at home on their own. Luckily, the walk-in tubs at Re-Bath of Richmond allow people to bathe safely and live an independent lifestyle.

Our walk-in tubs have many safety features. For one, the easily accessible door allows for a safe entrance and exit. The lower threshold lets people maneuver in and out of the tub easily; thus reducing the risk of slip-and-fall accidents.

Some people have trouble with balance and therefore cannot shower standing up. Walk-in tubs allow people to bathe while sitting down. Not only is this a more convenient way to bathe, it is also more comfortable.

Last but certainly not least, our walk-in tubs come equipped with grab bars. These bars help you get your balance when entering or exiting the tub. 

The walk-in tubs at Re-Bath of Richmond allow you to bathe in luxury. If you are interested in increasing the safety of your bathroom, a walk-in tub is a great place to start. For more information on our walk-in tubs, please give us a call at 804-591-1621.
