Feeling unsafe in your own bathroom is unnerving, but it’s also something that many homeowners cope with every day. The process of improving your bathroom’s accessibility to take back your independence starts with recognizing the areas of the room that are giving you the most trouble or making you the most uncomfortable.

Make a Plan to Remove Any Obstacles

When it comes to poor accessibility in the bathroom, the primary concern of most homeowners is the tub and/or shower. Unfortunately, these obstacles are slippery and were not traditionally designed for homeowners with mobility restraints. Over time, however, manufacturers have developed incredible bath and shower alternatives that are geared to improve accessibility and safety in the bathroom:

Most walk-in showers can also be rigged with your choice of safety accessories, like grab bars and in-shower seating, to further increase bathroom accessibility.
