When a foot slides on wet tile, a person grabs whatever is closest. In most bathrooms, that is the towel bar. You know a towel bar was never built to hold someone's weight.
It starts with a fall, then a fear of the shower, then a conversation nobody wants to have about moving out of the home they love.
A grab bar is anchored to hold a person, and it goes where a hand reaches by instinct, like the tub edge or the spot where they stand up from the seat. The right spot depends on how your parent moves, so a bar in the wrong place can look helpful while they keep reaching for something else.
