Bathroom Safety Equipment for the Elderly

Safety within your own home, especially your bathroom, is key for every family member, from toddler to elderly. The majority of at-home accidents for seniors happen in the bathroom, which is considered the most dangerous room in the house for numerous reasons:

• high humidity levels;
• wet slippery tiled flooring;
• high slip and fall risk at all times;
• hazardous hard surfaces and sharp corners;
• small space;
• dizziness and loss of balance when changing posture from sitting to standing;
• hot water burns, etc.
