Empress with handicapped person?'s

hello I want to take my mom on 4 night cruise on Empress. she can walk a about 50 feet at a time but mostly in wheelchair. The handicapped cabins are full. we are looking at cat E cabins on Deck 4 .

Is there a little stepover at the door or can we push wheelchair into cabin?

Bathroom its seems small step up?

is the shower just a curtin or plastic/glass panels?

Are there grab bars to help get up and down from toilet? Is the toilet sit up high or low?

Did you see any body with electric scooters on board? I have been reading the boards for about 4 hours now but could only find 1 bathroom photo and not much info for handicapped . Thank you .

Hi. Just returned from the Empress and had a wonderful time. We were also on deck 4, but probably a different cabin.

There was no step up from the hallway, but there was definitely a step up into the bathroom, and I think there was one out onto the veranda.

The shower curtain was plastic. The shower and the bathroom are very small, one-person-at-a-time small.

I think there were grab bars. Not sure about the toilet height. Probably on the low side.

Don’t recall any scooters, but perhaps I just wasn’t watching.

Hope this helps.

Thank you ! I am going to try to post to get someone in the next few weeks aboard to take pictures. . I called them today and said all parts of ship and hoho buses are accessible but the accessible cabins only 2 are booked when we can go .
