GRAB BARS - Not Just For Seniors

An unexpected fall while stepping into or out of the shower stall, especially when needing to step over the side of a tub is something that could happen to anyone, not just seniors. There is often a stigma in regards to grab bars only being for the elderly, however studies show and medical health professionals agree that a vertical bar at the shower entrance is a useful bathroom safety support device for anyone.

Howard Cohen, a grab bar installation specialist and licensed physical therapist for Mr. Grab Bar of Pinellas County has had more than a decade and a half of successful grab bar installations that have been critical in fall prevention throughout Florida. Many of their clients have been middle-aged people in their late 40s and 50s who are many years away from retirement but are taking the necessary precautions in making their bathroom safer. Many of their grab bars are multifunctional and fulfill the roles of different bathroom fixtures while also acting as empowering safety devices. With the advent of this new grab bar technology, people who want to improve the safety of their bathroom while at the same time not making it look institutional, can have a grab bar that acts as both a shelf and a grab bar, a towel bar and a grab bar, or even a toilet paper holder and a grab bar.
