Senior Care in Bay Park

Home Safety Tips for Seniors

One of the smartest ways to complement quality senior care in Bay Park is to improve the safety of your home. Most retirees want to remain in their own home for as long as they can. A good strategy for seniors wanting to age in place is to follow these smart safety tips along with great senior care from Visiting Angels^® La Jolla. 

Fall Hazards in the Home and Yard

A slip and fall can derail the course of your retirement. Long hospital visits can be expensive and put a damper on your mobility for years. Here are some common sense ways to avoid falling in your own home:

• Cracks in sidewalks
• Area Rugs
• Electrical Cords
• Door Thresholds
• Pavement cracks
• Low Tables

Cracks on your front steps are a hazard. Remember rain-soaked walks and stairs are a hazard too. Check the weather ahead of time. Use anti-slip mats under rugs and run electrical cords behind furniture. If losing your footing in the bathroom is an issue, install a grab bar in your shower.
