Trying to convince the p’s to ‘let’ me install a grab rail in their shower.

There is so much stigma to it it’s ridiculous.

Come out of the shower with fake blood running down your face and say you slipped.

Grab rails are also handy when I’m cleaning the shower and don’t want to step in.

It’s a great place to hang the face flannel.

  Actually that might help persuade them.

When my very frail (and very stubborn) MIL stayed with us when recovering from an injury, I had grab rails installed in the shower and next to the loo. She got really angry and refused to use them.

I’ve found them really handy though, both for holding on to and propping things on in the shower and for lifting myself off the loo after too much ‘leg day’ exercise.

Maybe try to sell them as chunky towel rails and shampoo holders?
