1) Making the bathroom experience safer

2) Making the bathroom experience easier and more comfortable

While safety is obviously a primary concern, ease of bathing should not be overlooked.  Once a person becomes disabled, using a bathroom can become a nightmare; especially if assistance from a nurse or family member is required.  As bathing becomes more difficult, it is common to see a person let their personal hygiene go by the wayside as they avoid cleaning themselves and using the bathroom.  Inability to bathe without assistance will damage a persons pride and eventually make them avoid using the bathroom.
