Tips to make bathing safer
Use a non-skid mat or strips in all standing areas of the bathroom.
Glaze bath tub or shower doors with safety glass or plastic.
Install grab bars on the walls by the bath tub or toilet.
Firmly install durable towel bars and soap dishes in the shower and never use them as grab bars.
Keep electrical appliances away from the bath tub, sink or shower area.
Set the water heater thermostat at or below 120 degrees to prevent accidental scalding.
Use night lights to brighten the way to the bathroom at night.
