Ways To Make Your Bathroom ​Senior Friendly

Are you a caregiver to an aging loved one? If so, you may be concerned about them living alone. It may be difficult for them to carry out daily tasks, such as bathing. Below are some steps you can take to make the bathroom a more senior friendly place. 

Walk-In Tub
A traditional bathtub can be very dangerous for seniors. After all, they may have trouble stepping over the high threshold. Fortunately, a walk-in tub is the solution to this problem. Our walk-in tubs are equipped with a door for easy entry and exit.

A Shower Seat
If your loved one prefers showers over baths, you may not know what to do. Luckily, the pros at Re-Bath of Richmond can install a seat in your shower. That way, your loved one can sit down as they bathe. This is much safer than standing for an extended period of time. 

Grab Bars
Does your loved one have a difficult time getting their balance? If so, they might be prone to slip and fall accidents. You can reduce the risk of a slip and fall accident by having grab bars installed in the shower or walk-in tub.
