You'd need to consult directly with Medicare and your physician for eligibility requirements.

What is the best type of walk-in shower?

The 'best' type of walk-in shower really depends on individual needs and preferences. For maximum accessibility, a curbless or roll-in shower is excellent. If you need a place to sit, a shower with a built-in bench is a good choice. The pros can help you select features like grab bars and appropriate showerheads for your Richmond residence.
