Ensuring safety for an elderly loved in the bathroom can provide greater peace of mind for users and caregivers alike.
Bathrooms are an unforgiving environment for the frail: they are comprised of hard surfaces (porcelain and tile), can become slick with condensation and moisture, and require transition from standing to sitting (toileting) or transition from bath or shower. All of these factors can lead to falls or undue strain on caregivers. We have carefully compiled the best bath safety products (by activity) to better navigate bathroom tasks and keep a loved one safer in their home environment. Our Parentgiving Picks for Bath Safety are:
