One of the most common safety issues I see in homes is grab bars being placed where they look good instead of where they actually help.
Many builder-installed bars or suction-cup bars are not anchored properly and can fail when someone truly needs them.
If you’re caring for an aging parent, the most important thing is that safety equipment is placed based on how someone moves—not just where it’s convenient.
