Making your home safer for a loved one with mobility issues is key to maintaining their independence. Here’s where to start:
Start by removing tripping hazards like rugs and clutter.
In the bathroom, install grab bars and use non-slip mats.
In the bedroom, consider lowering the bed for easier access.
And in the kitchen, keep frequently used items within reach to avoid dangerous falls.
Simple modifications can dramatically reduce risks and help your loved one feel more comfortable.
But every individual’s needs are unique, and a one-size-fits-all approach may not address all safety concerns. If you’re not sure where to start or want personalized guidance, book a 1:1 home safety consultation with our geriatric care expert, Dr. Chiddima Okoli.
