Fewer small (one-level) homes is an excellent point. Also a lot of old people used to live in trailer homes or mobile homes, which are also one-level.

- kjkjadksj 9mo agoThe stairs are probably your least likely place to fall. You have a railing. Getting out of the shower or slipping in the kitchen and catching the counter on the way down however…
- onlypassingthru 9mo agoThere is an unmet need for mandatory (stylish) shower bars. Age doesn't matter; everybody could benefit from a solid handhold in that critical in/out transition.
- rossdavidh 9mo agoI agree less likely, but I wonder if more likely to be fatal when they happen? Just a guess.
- havblue 9mo agoLike anything it depends. I'm terrified at the idea that my mother in law or my mom would slip on my stairs at home. We used to have carpeted basement stairs and I slipped on them several times. They're wood with silicone traction pads now and far safer.
