SIOUX FALLS, S.D. - TelAve -- Darin Bueltel, owner of Five Star Bath Solutions of Sioux Falls, has earned the Senior Home Safety Specialist® designation, joining a select group of professionals nationwide with advanced training in home safety, fall prevention, and aging-in-place solutions—particularly related to bathroom remodeling and walk-in shower safety.

The Senior Home Safety Specialist® program is the only designation of its kind in the senior services industry. Graduates include occupational and physical therapists, home care providers, aging-in-place professionals, contractors, senior living staff, EMS professionals, caregivers, and others committed to improving home safety and accessibility.

Falls remain the leading cause of injury among adults age 65 and older, with nearly one-third experiencing a fall in their home each year. Bathrooms are among the most hazardous areas due to slippery surfaces, high bathtub thresholds, and limited accessibility. According to the CDC, by 2030 the cost of fall-related injuries is expected to reach nearly $100 billion annually. Age Safe® America developed this program to help professionals educate families and implement proven safety modifications, including walk-in showers, low-threshold entries, slip-resistant flooring, grab bars, seating, and accessible bathroom layouts.

As people age, strength and mobility can decline, making everyday tasks more challenging—especially in the bathroom. Many homeowners wish to remain independent in their own homes, yet bathrooms are often not designed to support long-term safety and ease of use.

"If you or someone you love is experiencing mobility changes, it's important to evaluate how safe the bathroom truly is," said Bueltel. "We help identify hazards and recommend safer shower solutions such as walk-in showers, low-threshold entries, slip-resistant surfaces, and other accessibility upgrades."
