A towel bar is not a grab bar. This is the difference in mounting, weight, placement, and what a fall actually costs.
Why I built this
For years, my work as a physical therapist took place inside people's actual homes — not a clinic or a hospital. Walking through real living rooms, kitchens, bathrooms, and stairways taught me what generic advice tends to miss: the practical, everyday hazards that actually cause falls and injuries.
In home after home, I kept seeing the same preventable dangers and the same fixable gaps. I built Your Home Health PT to get that knowledge to seniors and families before a fall happens — not after — in plain language you can actually use at home.
