The summer vacation season is often a time in which we head out to visit family members who live out of town. Adult children often use some of their summer vacation time to visit their parents who they may only see a time or two a year. Sadly, this is usually the time in which they notice that mom or dad isn’t getting around as well as they once did. Their parents’ safety and how they navigate their home, especially the bathroom, becomes a concern. Something must be done in order to ensure the safety of our parents when we can’t be there.
Since most senior adults want to live in their own homes for as long as they possibly can, one option would be to remodel the bathroom to accommodate a parent’s needs. However, remodels are costly, messy, and time consuming, and most senior citizens live on a limited budget and can’t wait for weeks or months on a renewed bathroom space to be installed. A quicker, more cost-effective solution is necessary.
Miracle Method has just the solution adult children and their parents are looking for – an Easy Step Bathroom Safety Package, which includes the Easy Step tub-to-shower conversion, grab bars, and the application of a slip resistant surface. The Easy Step tub-to-shower conversion creates an opening in the side of a tub that will allow bathers to step through the side of the tub, instead of over it, which can significantly reduce the risk of loss of balance and falls. It can be installed with or without a door depending on the needs of the homeowners. The ADA-approved grab bars and slip resistant surface will also help prevent accidents and injuries due to slips and falls.
Before: The wall of the tub was difficult to step over, which could cause one to fall.
After: The Easy Step conversion and grab bars make getting into and out of the tub easier and safer.
With an Easy Step Bathroom Safety Package from Miracle Method, your parents can bathe easier and safer, and they’ll be able to stay in their own home for much longer. You’ll have peace of mind in knowing they can better take care of themselves.
