The rest of the house still seems to get hot water like it used to (I'm using the kitchen sink as a comparable as we use very hot water for the dishes). Is this a sign that the hot water tank is about to fail? Or is there something I should be doing with the shower handle?

I'm wondering if I can't really tell that the rest of the hot water in the house is not actually as hot as it used to be and the shower is the only place I can really tell?
I would think that you're probably right with your assessment, your hot water tank could be needing a replacement soon.
