Mary's stay-at-home plan

Mary is a fictional composite example, not a real client. The details are realistic, but they do not describe one person.

Home outlook

Staying at home may be realistic if the family solves bathroom support, night walking, winter entry, laundry, and emergency response together.

Mary's main-level setup is promising, but the home plan depends on caregiver coverage, equipment fit, and a consistent routine.

One issue from the plan

Bathroom transfers are the highest-risk daily routine.

The tub threshold and lack of visible anchored support make slipping or grabbing an unsafe towel bar more likely. Mild dementia also means the routine should stay simple and repeatable.

First step

Watch where Mary reaches during toilet and shower routines, stop using towel bars for support, and mark where steady hand support is needed before choosing hardware.
