Room details and site checks
Layout
Keep entry, toilet and shower approach unobstructed; place frequently used items within seated or standing reach.
Detail
Choose visually distinct fittings and non-glare lighting; select appropriate support features with a qualified professional.
Trade-off

  • Review transfers and reach with the resident
  • Check slip risks, lighting and water controls
