15 year old son sleep showers

My son has been sleepwalking since he learned to walk. The first time was when he was about 15 months old and he climbed out of his baby bed, went downstairs and I found him the next morning under the coffee table in the livingroom. I don’t know how long he had been there or what he did while he was wandering around. The doctor told us not to worry that he would probably outgrow it when he hit puberty. Well, he is 15 almost 16 now and it had increased dramatically. Now he gets up in the middle of the night and showers. Sometimes he goes back to sleep in the shower sitting in the tub. Sometimes he leaves the shower on all night and goes back to bed or on the couch to go back to sleep. I am worried that he will start doing other things that could be dangerous.
