Fall Risk & Home Safety in Westport, CT and the Surrounding Areas
Ensuring the home safety of elderly individuals in their own homes is crucial as aging can present various challenges. Caregivers play a vital role in making homes safer by identifying and mitigating potential hazards, such as removing dangerous objects and ensuring appliances are turned off when not in use.
Our team conducts thorough inspections to identify safety issues with items like area rugs, low tables, and ottomans. We also check for tripping hazards such as loose cords and look for features like non-slip flooring.
Recognizing the high risk of bathroom falls, we frequently install grab bars to enhance home safety. Additionally, we provide cooking and shower stools, as well as a bench near the front door for putting on shoes, all designed to be accessible for those with disabilities. These modifications help seniors perform daily tasks like cooking, bathing, and getting dressed more independently.
We are dedicated to significantly improving the safety of your loved ones’ homes, prioritizing their health and well-being above all else.
