Bath Safety

Bath time should be fun time no matter what your age. Bubbles help get you clean while the warm water soothes sore or tired muscles and joints. But accidents in and around the tub will spoil even the most relaxing soak. So be sure to incorporate some age-specific upgrades for safe, splash splashing for years to come.

20s and 30s
with the average American woman having her first baby at age 25, young women need to consider bath safety for themselves as well as their unborn child.

Medical experts agree -- it's perfectly okay for an expecting mom to take a bath, provided she takes some simple precautions, especially in the last trimester. During this time, a woman's center of gravity is out of balance, making her more prone to slips and falls. For expectant mothers who don't want to give up their bubble baths, an ideal device is the Locking Dual Tub Grip from Home Care by diabeticcorner. This product secures easily to the side of the tub and features handles at two levels, one to help get into the tub and one to assist rising from a relaxed position.

As you age, your body is more prone to aches and general ailments such as arthritis, osteoporosis, and diabetes. Don't let pain get the best of you -- soak it away. To help you get into the tub safely, consider adding a dual tub grip as well as grab bars.
