Bathroom Accessibility
Provide a Safe & Accessible Bathroom
Most home injuries are caused by slips and falls in the bathroom when people lose their footing on slippery, wet surfaces. By making small adjustments, you can make your bathroom easier to use and safer for you or a loved one.

Fortunately, it is not difficult to improve the accessibility of your bathroom and not all improvements require a complete bathroom remodel.
