As a senior, i would like to just soak in the tub occasionally, but find it very distressful getting out of the tub. i am alone. Now, I have some leverage on my left side, where 'bath fitters' installed a bar on the wall...but its the right side where i have no leverage at all. I know if i did, then there would be no problem. Can anyone suggest possibly installing a bar or something on the right side of the tub? Or know of something that i could put on the right side that would give me leverage? Thanks

There are many bars that go over the edge of the tub to assist
entry/exit. Do a search on Amazon

There may be a local grab bar installer too. Here in Florida it is a
full time business for a few people in the area.
