Caring For Caregivers

According to the National Alliance for Caregiving, approximately 43.5 million caregivers have provided unpaid care to an adult or child in the last 12 months.

Of family caregivers who provide complex chronic care:
46% perform medical and nursing tasks; More than 96% provide help with activities of daily living (ADLs) such as personal hygiene, dressing and undressing, bathing, getting in and out of bed. For more statistics visit here.

Proper bathroom safety equipment promotes safety and relieves stress, strain and aches for the caregiver. Whether you're in need of care or providing care for another, we are here to help.
