Bathroom Slip and Falls

 
Slipping and falling in the bathroom is quite a common occurrence. Thousands of reported injuries occur each year. The vast majority of injury-related deaths occur in the elderly population.

Follow these tips to prevent slips and falls in your bathroom:
  • Keep the floor clear and free of clutter.
  • Clean up water and other liquids immediately. Don't wax the floor.
  • Use non-slip bath matts to reduce your chance of slipping on linoleum.
  • Install grab bars by toilets and in shower/tub.
  • Make sure the bathroom is well lit. It is easy to trip and fall in poorly lit or dark areas.
  • Be aware that you are very likely to fall when climbing and reaching high places. Avoid placing objects up high.
  • Realize that some medications may lead to dizziness, weakness and other side effects. These can increase your chances of falling.

When we started renovations on the old farm manager's house, the bath was a closed-in area on the back porch. Until the 1960s, or later,bestshowerheads.reviews
