Senior Citizen Home Improvement and Safety Tips
Countless cases of senior citizen accidents can serve as proofs that the typical house settings are not suitable, and may even be dangerous, for elderly occupants. As a solution, home improvements need to be taken into serious consideration:
- Make sure that every kitchen feature is installed with comfort and safety in mind — accessible cabinets, easy grip knobs and handles and clear instructions of the use of appliances.
- Medical alert devices, a smoke detector and automatic lighting are only some additions that will work perfectly for your senior loved one’s bedroom.
- Wet and slippery bathroom floors can be a major problem without durable grab bars, non-skid strips, walk-in shower and accessible outlets.
