Bathroom Safety
- Turn down the temperature of the water
heater to 115-120 degrees F.
- Put non-skid mats, abrasive strips, or
textured surfaces on the bottom of the tub or shower.
- Use night-lights so it is easier to
find the light switch.
- Use a bath bench or shower stool with
non-skid tips as a seat for safety while showering or bathing.
- Use only grab bars specifically
designed for the purpose of support, not towel racks, when getting
into and out of tub or shower.
- UNPLUG all small appliances (hair
dryers, shavers, and curling irons) when not in use.
