OT's Favorite Things
Over the years, I've recommended hundreds of products to patients and families. This collection includes the ones I come back to again and again because they truly make a difference. From simple daily conveniences to home safety essentials, these are products that can help your home work better for you.

💡🌙 Light the Way Automatically ⭐
A handheld shower head is only helpful if you can actually reach it. This adjustable shower hook allows you to position the shower head right beside your seated shower chair, so you can stay comfortably seated while rinsing. Fewer trips standing up on a wet surface means a safer, more independent shower.
Traditional lower cabinets often become one of the hardest places to access. These pull out drawers bring pots, pans, and everyday essentials to you, reducing the need to kneel, bend, or get down on the floor. They're a simple upgrade that can dramatically improve accessibility from both a standing and seated position without the expense of a full kitchen remodel.
One of the most common fall risks I see happens during late night trips to the bathroom. Reaching for a light switch in the dark, especially when you're sleepy or rushing, can increase the risk of losing your balance. A motion sensor light switch automatically turns the lights on as you enter the room, eliminating one more obstacle and making nighttime navigation safer and easier.
🏆 Invisible Grip for Safer Showers ⭐
Fiberglass and acrylic tubs can become extremely slippery when wet. This easy to apply coating creates a clear, textured surface that improves traction without changing the look of your shower or tub. It's one of my favorite ways to increase safety while maintaining a clean, modern appearance.
Cooking is about so much more than preparing a meal. It's about maintaining independence, routines, and confidence. This automatic jar opener makes it easy to open stubborn lids with the push of a button, helping anyone with arthritis, reduced grip strength, or limited hand function continue doing what they love in the kitchen.
🍽️ Keep Cooking with Confidence 💙
A shower chair shouldn't keep you at home. This lightweight, foldable shower chair is easy to pack for vacations, overnight visits, or trips to see family. It stores flat, travels easily, and provides a safer shower wherever life takes you. Because staying independent also means staying connected to the people and places you love.
