Advantages Of A Handicap Shower

Bathroom Safety Bathrooms can present many functional, accessible and overall safety challenges especially for those who are dependent on mobility devices. In general, most bathrooms are not designed with fixtures that support those with disabilities or mobility issues. Some bathroom difficulties include: • Accessibility • Comfort • Safety • Independence

Accessibility • Often, bathroom accessibility is a

common challenge for those with disabilities.

• This is common because residential

bathrooms are not constructed with appropriately sized entryways for the shower or even for the bathroom itself for those who use mobility devices.

• With unrestricted entry, elderly and

disabled individuals can more easily access the bathroom with less stress or unnecessary added effort.

Comfort • Increasing comfort for a loved one who is

physically challenged is always a goal, particularly in the bathroom where privacy and independence vary.

• Although the freedom to access the

bathroom is very helpful, there are other areas of improvement for comfort in the bathroom.

• It’s no secret that more accessible options for

the elderly or disabled helps to develop a more healthy, comfortable, and fulfilled lifestyle.

Safety

• Whether you have a disability or not, increased safety in the bathroom environment is a serious priority.

• The major danger in the bathroom for the

physically challenged is falling. Accessible bathrooms help to protect individuals from this potential hazard.

• In addition, adapting a bathroom to

prevent safety hazards provides both those who require care and caretakers peace of mind.

Independence • Achieving independence is the

greatest challenge for accessibility and safety in a home.

• Modifying a bathroom to an

individual who has mobility issues is not as difficult as it seems to be.

• Making a bathroom accessible and

safe is an individualized project. Modification depends solely on the individual’s needs, preferences and available space.
