Abstract
The awareness of someone’s ability to maintain and to keep life has become better; hence having a longer life expectation became a grace and a pride. It is estimated that life expectation figures maximally up to 125 years. The increase of people’s awareness of maintaining and sustaining life, in order to get a better quality of life, results in a higher life expectancy. Aging is a natural and spontaneous process started from the childhood, puberty, young adults, and then declines in the middle to seniors (elderly). The prosperity of the elderly people, whom due to their physical or mental condition no longer possible role in development, needs special attention from the government and society. This research was conducted in a nursing home (home service). The nursing home as a place where the elderly live needs to adjust and redesign their bathroom. This effort is done by considering that the ability of the elderly’s motor movement has tremendously declined; it is caused by the decrease in their motor sensor capacity. The elderly should get attention, particularly on meeting their needs on personal hygiene. The bathroom is the most dangerous area for their activity. Therefore that site needs special attention concerning to the access to be easily used by the elderly.
