Common Cruise Ship Hazards

Common Cruise Ship Trip and Fall Hazards

There are many trip and fall hazards aboard cruise ships.  For example, there are raised thresholds at the bottom of doorways throughout the ship - such as the doorway from your bedroom to your bathroom in your cabin. This threshold his meant to help trap water.  However, because this kind of threshold does not exist in normal life on shore, passengers often don't expect it to be there. 

There are also many single step elevation changes, to help create ambiance.  However, these single steps are often hard to see.   Hard to see tripping hazards on crowded decks cause serious trip and fall injuries, especially for senior citizens who are simply not as stable as younger passengers.
