Safety and personal care are basic needs that can sometimes be overlooked when it comes to seniors who choose to "age in place" at home or with relatives. Fear of falling or limited mobility can lead to reduced daily activities. While there are many ways to "fall proof" a home for seniors, one modification that can have a huge impact is a walk-in tub.
Installing a walk-in tub is one of the modifications recommended by the National Institute on Aging, and maybe one of the most important. It gives seniors the ability to maintain independence, safety and control over the things they once didn't have a second thought about.
Seniors in South Florida can receive free, non-binding quotes for bathroom safety modifications and may even qualify for low-income and government subsidized programs to assist in covering the cost of installing a walk-in tub. Caring.com has created an in-depth guide on these programs and conducted over 80 hours of research on the best walk-in tubs of 2023.
Walk-in tubs and showers are a fairly simple home modification that can allow seniors to continue the course of life safely and dignified.
