More elderly people require personal care assistance due to the increase of life expectancy. Thelimited space in nursing homes leads to home care as a trending solution. However, smallresidential bathrooms which have not been designed for care could pose a risk for care workers,especially during demanding tasks such as toileting and bathing. The aim of this thesis was to createa list of some types of assistance tools available in the Swedish job market, to develop a designexample of an adapted equipped ordinary home bathroom and to perform an analysis of what kindof bathroom design among the studied ones, impact less task efficiency in terms of physical effort(distance, speed, time). This could help stakeholders to understand and identify possible actionpoints where new methodologies and tools could be applied to reduce the risks of injury ordeveloping Musculoskeletal disorders. Through web search and document review across severaldomains, a bathroom aid inventory was created. Review of blueprints and design resources providedreferences and inspirations for the creation of an adapted home bathroom using AutoCAD software.The layout was later built as a mock-up for an experimental trial of bathroom care tasks. Careworkers were recruited to participate in the experiment and video recorded. Their path was trackedusing Kinovea software while they simulated toileting and bathing tasks, resulting in the creation ofspaghetti diagrams (path maps). Repeated-measures ANOVA test was used for the univariate andbivariate analysis of speed, distance and the three bathroom types. Also, a significance test wasconducted for helping to evaluate the task efficiency. Analysis showed no significant differenceamong bathroom types for mean speed of movement within the bathroom nor mean taskcompletion time. However, the mean path distance for the nursing home bathroom was significantlylonger than the unequipped bathroom type and trends towards longer than the equipped bathroomtype. This suggests that adding assistive devices in the space do not slow down the users, with theadditional benefit of adding safety for users.
