The bathroom in your home should be a safe space for everyone who lives with you or visits you. If you or your family members find it difficult to move around the bathroom and use the facilities due to mobility, sensory, or physical issues, then it might be time to consider making some inclusive, accessible changes to the room so it can be enjoyed by everyone who uses it.

1.   Helps Independence

One of the most important advantages of installing an accessible bathroom in your home is that it helps maintain independence. Having to rely on loved ones or carers to use a bathroom safely can be challenging. Instead, some accessible changes, such as grab bars or a walk-in bath or shower, can protect your independence and ensure you can continue to use the facilities without assistance.

2.   It’s Safer

The risk of trips, slips, and falls is higher in people with decreased mobility. By nature, bathrooms are wet, which can make falling more likely. An accessible bathroom is designed to help prevent accidents from happening with non-slip surfaces and other aids to create a safer environment.

3.   Increased Space

Space is at a premium in most bathrooms, and a lack of it can make it difficult to move around. Mobility-friendly bathrooms are designed to make the most of your available space so you can move around it freely. It doesn’t matter how big or small your bathroom is; an expert mobility bathroom supplier like us can advise you on clever space-saving adaptions so you can use your bathroom with ease.

4.   Suitable For All The Family

Making accessible-friendly changes to your bathroom, like comfortable seating and easy-to-reach features, ensure that it is suitable to be used by the whole family. If an older relative lives with you, adapting your bathroom will mean that you can live together in perfect harmony. It is important to note that it is never too early to start making changes to your bathroom that make it easier to use. Although you personally may not require an adapted bathroom right now, you might in the future, so it’s best to prepare for this in advance.

5.   Adds Value To Your Home

Of course, the main benefit of getting an accessible bathroom fitted in your home is that it will make your life or a loved one’s life much easier and safer. However, it is good to know that an accessible bathroom can add a lot of value to your property and is desirable for many home buyers. Wet rooms, for example, are highly sought after as a stylish bathroom option. On top of this, accessible bathrooms aren’t just functional anymore; they are attractive too, which makes it more likely for someone to keep your design, saving money on a refit if they were to buy your property.
