Out of these adults, one third (aged 65 and older) were treated with fractures due to falling in the bathroom. Whereas rest of them (almost 38% of them, aged 85 and more) were hospitalized due to slipping in the bathrooms.

You can avoid your trip to the emergency room to get treatment due to falling in the bathroom. If at least 30% of the people (who had suffered a hip fracture sometimes) will install grab bars in their bathroom, they will definitely decrease the accident cases in the bathrooms. You can install them in various areas at your home according to your need, such as near the toilet, in the garage, in the shower, in the entryway to your home etc. You can install them in any direction as per your comfort level, like diagonally, horizontally or vertically.

The horizontal grab bars will provide you the ability to push upward or reach in from the entry. The horizontal bars are most commonly used during sitting in a shower chair because they are found to be a little easier to push down. The diagonal bars are usually placed at a slight angle to help the users with weak and painful arms or wrist.
