If You Want To Avoid Drowning In The Bathtub, Then Do These Things First
First, check that the non-slippery floor tiles in the bathroom are in good condition. High-gloss tiles look great, but they also have an increased risk of falling off when wet.
Place a non-slip rub or bath mat at the bathroom door to avoid falls when going out.
Add grab bars and slots near the bathtub, as it can help maintain balance.
Keep the bathroom clean, and do not keep too many things here and there. Of course, it is vital to keep essentials inside the toilet, but it is crucial to have a clear path to the tub.
If there are elders in the house, then keep a chair for taking a bath. Don’t use the tub.
Children under four should always be supervised by an adult at bath time. Children can drown even in shallow water.
Keep an eye on your baby whenever you leave him to take a bath in the tub.
