We work closely with the family, occupational therapists (OT), and various healthcare providers to conduct thorough home safety evaluations. Our dedicated team will assess the home layout and provide tailored recommendations to make the living environment more accessible and secure for all occupants. These recommendations may include suggestions for minor adaptations to enhance safety or more extensive home remodeling projects as requested by the family. Common improvements may involve installing a new roll-in shower with grab bars for added safety, as well as adding ramps for easier home entry and exit for individuals with mobility challenges. Here are descriptions of roll-in showers and ramps, which can be helpful in understanding their design and functionality.

Roll-In Shower

Roll-in showers are barrier-free showers designed to be accessible for individuals who use wheelchairs or have mobility challenges. These showers typically feature:

  • Wide Entry: The entrance is level with the bathroom floor, allowing easy access without the need for a threshold.

  • Non-Slip Flooring: A textured surface that reduces the risk of slipping when wet.

  • Grab Bars: Installed on the walls for stability and support while entering or exiting the shower.

  • Shower Seat: Foldable or built-in seats that allow users to sit comfortably while showering.

  • Handheld Showerhead: Adjustable showerheads that can be used while seated or standing.

Ramps

Ramps provide a gradual incline for wheelchair users or individuals with mobility issues to navigate different levels of a building or outdoor space. Key features include:

  • Gentle Slope: A slope that meets ADA guidelines, ensuring safety and ease of use.

  • Stable Surface: Non-slip materials that provide traction, even in wet conditions.

  • Side Rails: Optional railings that offer additional safety and support.

  • Durable Construction: Materials that can withstand weather conditions for outdoor ramps.

These elements are crucial for ensuring accessibility and safety in shower and ramp designs.
