Remodeling your old bath or shower to a safe & modern
bathing area means less stress and cost down the line. Use these
safety remodeling ideas now to live independently later.

Grab Bar
More than ever, seniors are choosing to remain in their own home
and community as they age. In fact, 9 out of 10 seniors prefer to
age-in-place to be close to family & friends and remain active in
their community*. It's no wonder that home remodeling is on the
rise–especially in the bathroom area where most accidents can
happen that could lead to unforeseen medical cost.
Upgrading your bathroom for better accessibility and safety is the
number one remodeling need to reduce slips and falls. If you have
a bathtub and finding it harder to step over the tub, you may want
to consider converting to a safe walk-in-shower.
Additional Safety Upgrades:
• Walk-in-showers provide low or no threshold for easy
accessibility in and out of the shower. No threshold is also known
as roll-in shower that has curbless entry which is especially
important for those with decreasing mobility.
• Slip resistant shower seating can relieve strain that comes with
standing for an extended period of time. Choose from many
seating options from built-in corner seats to retractable seats.
• Adding grab bars and other safety accessories to your shower
can dramatically increase safety in your bathroom. It helps you to
stand and safely get in and out of the shower area, providing
piece of mind.
• Our Jacuzzi ® Walk-In Bathtubs address many concerns from
falling, chronic pain and loss of independence. It provides the
ultimate safety and bathing experience with therapeutic
hydrotherapy benefits and combating limited mobility.
