Regular movement can help you maintain your sense of balance and posture. Hygiene Loss of fine motor control and balance may make it more difficult to perform simple tasks such as brushing your teeth and bathing. But hygiene is important for your comfort and self-esteem. It is also important for your continued health and well-being. Replace glass partitions and slippery bath mats, and use paper cups.
Tile flooring in the bathroom can become slippery and dangerous when wet.
Install sturdy grab bars next to the bath, toilet, and wherever else you need balance and support. Never use towel racks for support. Avoid standing up in the bathtub. If you like to take showers, consider sitting down in the shower or place rubber mats on the floor of the tub. Instead of drying with a towel after you bathe, put on a terrycloth robe.
