This may be the place where you could use the most help. Getting
around the bathroom can be tricky, especially since floors, showers,
and tubs can get very slippery when wet. In addition, most bathrooms
are small and restrict your movement. Here are some helpful devices
you can use to make your bathroom a safer place:

Attach nonskid decals or strips to the tub or shower floor. You can
even use a rubber mat. These can all help prevent falls
Get rid of small bathroom rugs that are easy to trip over. Try a large
rug that covers most of the floor or get wall-to-wall carpeting
Install tub rails or grab bars throughout the bathroom. These will
help you balance when getting in and out of the tub or shower
Use a tub seat or shower chair to make bathing easier and to eliminate
the risk of falling
Purchase a raised toilet seat, attach arm rails to the toilet, or
install a grab bar on the wall next to the toilet. These will all make
sitting on and rising from the toilet easier
