3 Reasons To Gift Your Loved One With Shower Bay This Christmas

The holiday season is practically here! With Christmas just around the corner, you’re surely gearing up for a wonderful time with your loved ones. On behalf of everyone at Forward Day, we wish you a very happy holiday season!

Will you be celebrating with elderly loved ones or family members with mobility issues? If so, there is a very special gift we would like to recommend for them. For those with mobility issues and/or disabilities, our revolutionary Shower Bay portable shower makes an excellent Christmas gift.

Here are three reasons to gift your loved one with Shower Bay this Christmas:

1. It Eliminates the Dangers of the Bathroom

For many individuals who contend with mobility issues, the simple act of entering the bathroom can be a dangerous one. The bathroom is known as the room in the household that presents the greatest risk of slips and falls. With a Shower Bay in your home, you eliminate the need for the bathroom to be used for the purpose of taking a shower. Shower Bay can be snapped together in any room of the home where there is a faucet nearby. As a result, the dangers of the bathroom are eliminated.

As Homewatch CareGivers reports, “one study found that the most common location for fall injuries in the home was the bathroom, including when people are hurrying to the bathroom. A National Institute on Aging statistic states that 80% of falls in the home happen in the bathroom.”

2. It Helps to Restore One’s Independence

Shower Bay does more than simply aid with the physical labor needed to take a shower. It provides peace of mind and restored independence to individuals with mobility issues. Both the elderly and the physically-challenged cope with feelings of sadness, anger, and embarrassment because of their limitations. The easy-to-use Shower Bay portable shower lets wheelchair users roll their wheelchairs into the shower and close the door for private bathing experiences.

“Helping the person in your care feel that he or she is not totally dependent on others can be something as simple as letting the person do the washing up or walk a few steps without assistance,” Endeavor Senior In-Home Care reminds us, “It is important to remember that even if the caregiver has to help a little or provide supervision for safety, it will not detract from the sense of achievement.”

3. It Offers a Cost-Effective Solution

Forward Day’s customers have saved thousands of dollars by avoiding the act of renovating their homes. Homes that inhabit wheelchair users often need to widen their doorways or remove their traditional bathtubs in place of those of the walk-in variety. With a Shower Bay portable shower, you don’t have to remodel your bathroom to accommodate the wheelchair user that lives with you.

When we came up with the Shower Bay portable shower, we knew we had a money-saving solution on our hands. Of course, we also had wheelchair users in mind. Keeping wheelchair users safe and comfortable is a big part of our mission statement.
