Bathrooms in Retirement Residences: Perceptions and Experiences of Seniors and Caregivers

ABSTRACT Seniors may have difficulties interacting with their environment due to emerging motor disabilities. The bathroom is probably the first space where this can be observed, yet retirement residences continue to build bathrooms designed for adults without disabilities. This qualitative study aimed to shed light on the relationship between users (seniors with motor disabilities and caregivers) and their bathrooms in retirement residences, and on how users imagine their ideal bathroom. Most interviewees claimed to have no problems using this space; however, a decrease in both the frequency of hygiene habits and the need for privacy was observed.
