Are grab bars required in every bathroom under NSPIRE?

• A. Yes
• B. No
• C. Only in public restrooms
• D. Only if a disability is present

Answer: (B)

Grab bars are safety features tied to accessibility needs, not a universal fixture in every bathroom. NSPIRE requires them where accessibility standards apply—typically in units or spaces designated as accessible or in public/restroom areas where codes require them. In private, non-accessible bathrooms, NSPIRE does not compel installation. So, grab bars are not required in every bathroom.
