Disabled or Not?

Posted by Elite Internet Technologies on December 7th, 2016

Disabilities are not always visible.

Have you noticed that we freely judge others so easily based on our own ideas of what the reality should be? Perhaps you have experienced this yourself - being the victim of someone’s harsh misjudgment condemning you for parking in a handicapped spot because you could walk without assistance. Perhaps you have silent seizures, so people around you have condemned you for arrogantly staring off into the distance rather than paying attention to them.

There are many disabilities which do not have blatantly obvious signs. One of these is autism.

Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) could be very mild, very extreme, or anywhere in between. Hence the word “spectrum.” This disability could cause people to do things that they don’t necessarily want to, like suddenly hit something they don’t like or perform other sudden movements.

Sudden actions like these from any disorder could pose a danger when doing something simple like taking a shower. If something is wrong with the shampoo bottle, the water temperature, or even if a spider jumps in, the risk of falling presents itself.

Disabled baths are designed for safety and comfort. They are entered by a door in the side of the tub wall, have anti-slip floors and seats, have grab bars for extra balance, and have an automatic anti-scalding temperature control. With these safeguards in place, a step in bathtub offers peace of mind and security for those with disabilities and their loved ones.

A Step in Bathtub is not only for the disabled. Anyone can enjoy these safety benefits along with the many therapeutic features available. Also, disabled baths can be customized to fit into your bathroom and to accommodate individuals of any size.

Don’t let other people control the lives of you or your loved ones by harsh misjudgments. Walk with your head high and enjoy every day. For more information please visit www.americanwalkintubs.com
