Perceptions of residential grab bars among community dwelling seniors

Despite the perceived importance of grab bars to facilitate aging-in-place and healthy aging, many community-dwelling older adults do not have them installed. The aim of this study was to investigate predictors of grab bar installation among well-educated community dwelling seniors. Data was collected quantitatively through an electronic survey of Oregon residents 50 years of age and older. The research analysis was completed using logistic regression with SPSS and qualitative analysis for the open questions. / Graduation date: 2012
