* Never leave the person alone in the bathroom.
* Lower the thermostat on your hot-water heater to prevent scalding injuries.
* Always check the water temperature, even if the person draws his or her own bath.
* Always put a nonskid mat in the tub or shower.
* Install grab bars and use a tub bench or bath chair that can adjust to different heights.
* Make sure there are no puddles on the bathroom floor; think about installing carpet.
