Bhubaneswar: Did you know bathrooms are one of the most dangerous places in the home, especially for the elderly?
One in four adults above 65 falls every year, according to the National Council on Ageing in USA. Shockingly, 80% of these falls happens in the bathroom.
Falls can lead to serious injuries or even death. In fact, one person dies in the shower or bathtub every day in the USA, according to nonsliptapes.com.
