Angela cared for an 89-year-old woman who had recently experienced several falls.
The woman’s doctor recommended a shower chair and grab bars, but neither item was covered through available programs, and her fixed income left no room in the budget.
Angela worried every time her client stepped into the bathtub.
Through a local program Angela was able to have the safety equipment. The modifications immediately reduced fall risks and allowed the woman to bathe with greater confidence and dignity.
“Something as simple as a shower chair changed her whole day,” Angela shared. “She felt safe again.”
