How to Make a Senior's Bathroom Safe

[@Ace-ls6yl]

Great video, very clear and easy to follow. Take good care of your parents!!

All of those are excellent ideas. But, there is a VERY important one you’ve missed: shower handle grab bars mounted INSIDE the shower. However if you’re like me, I live in a rental so mounting permanent bars into the shower tile isn’t an option. The solution for me has been grab bars with suction cups. It may sound funky, but they work great! There is a lever for each of the two suction cups which makes mounting on the tile walls easy. The bars feel very secure, but just to be prudent I’ll test them first thing each time I step into the shower. The shower handle grab bars are on Amazon: a set of 2 bars is $27. I’ve had them for a few years and am extremely happy with them.

I really enjoyed this video, especially the non-invasive use of technology to help a grandparent or disabled person! I'm questioning the use of a bathroom runner, since it can harbor hidden mold & become a tripping hazard, but I can see how a grippy carpet bottom & non-absorbent materials could make it an improvement.

Excellent and quite appropriate bathroom gadgets for the elderly.

I'd never heard about the Walabot Home. Pretty cool device.

Nice job, Nils!

Seniors frequently trip on runner rugs. Better not to use these…put the adhesive traction dots on the tile.

Where do buy the round things for the shower floor

Thank you, especially on the AI device.

Do you have a link to the stud finder you used?

[@LRN2DIY]

Sure thing. amzn.to/2Guzlb7

Very cool thanks

[@jasonfrost2487]

Why not a support bar inside the shower space? Why not show the Walabot working rather than just how to install it?

7:32 You knocked that old lady on her ass? That's not cool bro! People will do anything for a sponsor these days.
