Fall Risk & Home Safety in Princeton, NJ and the Surrounding Areas
Elderly individuals’ home safety is a significant concern, as they may face increased challenges in managing their living spaces with age. Caregivers can play a crucial role in enhancing safety by implementing preventive measures and addressing potential hazards. This might involve removing items that could pose risks or ensuring that appliances are turned off when not in use.
Our team will thoroughly evaluate potential safety concerns related to items such as area rugs, low tables, and ottomans. We will also inspect the area for cords and wires, non-slip flooring, and other potential trip hazards. Recognizing the importance of simplifying the living environment for elders, we commonly install bathroom grab bars, as bathroom falls are prevalent. Additionally, our team frequently provides easily accessible seating solutions, including kitchen and shower stools, as well as a bench near the front entrance for putting on shoes. These modifications make it easier for seniors to cook, bathe, and carry out daily tasks independently.
We are committed to significantly enhancing home safety for your loved ones and take pride in prioritizing the safety of the elderly.
