The first question you should ask is about where you need the most help. Think about your daily routine in the bathroom. What are your struggles and where could you use some assistance? For instance, do you need a bit of help when you get in and out of the shower or bathtub? If the answer is yes, it might be a good idea to invest in some grab bars for extra support. You’ll be able to hold onto these as you step in and out of the shower so you don’t lose your balance.
There are also toilet safety rails that will offer support when you need help getting on and off the toilet. If balance is an issue for you, your shower experience can be made a lot easier and safer with a shower bench or chair. You’ll be able to sit down comfortably while you bathe and no longer have to be afraid of losing your balance in the process.
