Here are some tips to help you improve safety in your bathroom:

1. Bathroom doors locked from the inside can delay important medical intervention if an accident occurs. Make sure the bathroom has an easy way to unlock the door from the outside.

2. The bathroom is the most likely area of a household where a person may fall. Bathroom floors can be very slippery if they get wet. It is not always easy to see the wet area. Nonslip floors in the bathroom will help prevent slips and falls. Don't have loose rugs on bathroom floors. Remove any throw rugs from the bathroom and all corridors leading to the bathroom. Placing non-skid adhesive strips in the tub or on the floor of the bathroom is an easy and inexpensive way to prevent falls.

3. Install grab bars to help you get in and out of the bathtub or shower. Grab bars can help prevent falls. Check existing bars for strength and stability, and repair if necessary.

4. A light switch near the door will prevent you from walking through a dark area. Consider replacing the existing switch with a "glow switch" that can be seen in the dark.

5. Always test the temperature of the bath or shower water with your hand before you get in. The heat from the hot water in the bath or shower could make you lightheaded, so don't stay in the water too long. Water temperature above 120 degrees can cause tap water scalds. Lower the setting on your hot water heater to "Low" or 120 degrees.
