The shower is about 20 cm (8 inches) too narrow. Is it possible to drive a wheelchair in forward and backward directions? Why does one need to be able to turn 360° with a wheelchair in the shower?
There is about 10 cm (4 inches) missing for the turning circle in the room. Of course, a closet would be out of place! The sink might need to be adjusted if necessary.
I do not intend to apply for any funding for this, as there currently is no need for a wheelchair. … but you never know what the future holds! That is why the omitted lift shaft is planned to compensate for the disadvantages of the split-level design if needed.
Does anyone have practical experience or tips on what is really important?

b) No, it’s not necessary.
A patient requiring care is usually moved under the shower using a commode chair rather than a wheelchair. Showering with a wheelchair is not common practice. However, the space needed by a caregiver may well exceed the turning radius of a wheelchair.
