If you are disabled, or if someone in your home is disabled, then showering and washing in general can provide a somewhat awkward but more importantly dangerous series of problems. When one washes the desire of course is to wash alone and this of course is something that we should respect whether or not there are disabilities present.
However the problem is that this then means that those who find it difficult to stand are left alone in the bathroom, where no one can see them and where several things can go wrong. By using things like a handicapped shower and walk in bath tub it is highly possible to make this much easier to use and thereby reduce the chance of problems while also reducing the awkwardness. Because if you can make your bathroom safe enough to use without supervision and help, the you nor your visitors/residents will have to go through the embarrassing process of having to get changed and washed in full view.
